Annabel returns with Worldviews, on Tiny Engines, their first new album album in nine years. The album finds the band reconciling with the ways the world has changed in the decade since they’ve been away.

Think of Worldviews less like a comeback and more as the product of years spent gestating. The album is the most locked in the band has ever sounded, perfecting and building on their indie-emo sound.
