Their latest album, Bury the Key, marks their first full-length release since 2020 and is now released under the welcoming new label, Ghostly International. This album is a beautiful reintroduction of the Montral banda polished, melodic marvel thats always evolving and daring to explore darker, more complex sounds. It explores feelings once hidden away, creating a meaningful dialogue between happiness, hedonism, and self-destruction. The songs, often featuring fictional characters, are vibrant and groove-oriented, yet rooted in personal insights about intimacy, toxic behaviors, drug use, and fears of the future. During recording, they sensed a shift and embraced it, jokingly calling themselves "evil TOPS," shares Penny. "We're often perceived as gentle or naive in the Canadian way, but we challenged ourselves to capture the world around us more honestly." Seen through the perspective of a new epoch and greater life experience, TOPS ventures into a darker disco sound with Bury the Key, adding a sharp edge to their signature soft-focused sophisti-pop.
