Released in 2020, I Feel Alive marks a shimmering return for Montreal indie-pop band Tops, blending their signature soft-focus synths, bright guitar lines, and Jane Penny's emotionally direct vocals into their most vibrant work yet. The album balances glossy pop warmth with introspective lyricism, exploring themes of desire, transformation, and self-realization. With a sound that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly modern, I Feel Alive captures the band at a new creative peak-lush, intimate, and effortlessly cool, reaffirming Tops as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary dream-pop.
