Happysad is the album siblings Meg and Dia Frampton thought they'd never make, but it's one that not only finds their friendship rekindled, but their creative spark reignited and their musical horizons expanded. The unlikely reunion came about after Dia released her second solo album, Bruises, in 2017. Something about the experience felt off and she felt drawn to the musical past she'd shared with Meg. Unbeknownst to Dia, Meg had also been feeling an urge to regroup with her sister and get the last incarnation of the band back together. The result is an album that, in keeping with it's title, treads the line between joy and melancholy, darkness and light. Opener "American Guru" - a song inspired by Meg's spiritual quest to find the truth in life - is a soothing pulse of dreamy electronics that's riddled with existential questions even as it realizes the answers are out of reach.
