Faixas começam e terminam sem mostrarem para o que vieram em um desfile de pop indie com folk e rock. Lights Out é um bom álbum de indie pop, mas que não tem a força suficiente para adentrar no mainstream e também não é desbravador e original para criar sua própria sonoridade. Conhecida mais pelo fato de várias de suas canções ao longo dos anos serem utilizadas em seriados como, por exemplo, Grey's Anatomy e The Vampire Diaries, Ingrid lançou recentemente o seu sexto álbum. Esse é o caso do álbum Lights Out da cantora norte americana Ingrid Michaelson. Mesmo com várias qualidades, se um álbum passa a vibe de ser chato, por qualquer razão, o resultado final fica aquém do que poderia ser.

HIGHLIGHTS: Wonderful Unknown, Girls Chase Boys, One Night Town, Open Hands, Over You … Expand It's a wild card of an album and it's extremely surprising and pleasant to hear Ingrid pull it off with such wit. In all, Lights Out offers something for everybody. Although, Ingrid's head voice is able to shine throughout the whole song. My only complaint would have to be Handsome Hands, which feels out of place and sounds more like a Florence + The Machine b-side. The closer, Everyone Is Gonna Love Me Now, perfectly ends things with powerful lyricism and strong production, while Ingrid's vocals provide an even more sad atmosphere. Open Hands, Ready To Lose, and Over You achieve a type of greatness in spite of their simplicity. Warpath and Time Machine are both bluesy rock tracks that are full-on "stompers." The most somber, but some of the most beautiful, moments occur on the second half of Lights Out. You Got Me, a pretty wild track, shifts through possibly three genres in 3 minutes. Home, a more folksy opener, contains beautiful and catchy vocals. Who would have ever thought Mat Kearney would make a dance-pop song? Girls Chase Boys is a very Sara Bareilles-type track that Ingrid pulls off beautifully. The track is extremely catchy and the song could make it into a club. Ingrid also flirts with some very modern dance-pop on One Night Town. It's a song with beautiful lyrics and production so chilling. The best song on here, to me anyway, is Wonderful Unknown that immediately brings The Beatles to my mind. Ingrid's lovely songwriting shines, but the stylistic shifts in each album make Lights Out quite an interesting ride.
