Torchbearers for British guitar music, The Vaccines – Justin Young (lead vocals, guitars), Árni
Árnason (bass, vocals), Timothy Lanham (guitars, keys, vocals) and Yoann Intonti (drums) –
are back with their sixth studio album Pick-Up Full of Pink Carnations. The title comes from a
misheard lyric from Don McClean’s “American Pie,” a song that for Young fittingly evokes the
death of innocence and the American Dream. After he moved to Los Angeles – a city the
band has grown up being captivated by – he was forced to wrestle with the disillusionment
that comes when expectations, dreams, and reality don’t quite meet. Yet, though Pick-Up
Full of Pink Carnations is an album about reconciling with loss, it’s also filled with gratitude
for the people and places we once loved.
