Cascades, the title of the second record from the Brooklyn group High Highs, could be read in a number of ways. It could be taken as a nod to the group's hometown - the coastal Australian city of Sydney, which rests against the beautiful, blue Pacific Ocean. Or it could be a nod to the record's sound, which retains the broad scope of the group's debut, Open Season, but feels bigger and grander.
