Utah band The National Parks' new album, '8th Wonder,' comes out Friday, and their tour starts March 17 in Salt Lake City. TheNatlParks
that the band was done chasing a radio-friendly pop sound, the sound progression of “8th Wonder” was more organic, said Megan Taylor Parks.
Another thread is the album’s lyricism, which plays on nature metaphors without being cliché, in songs like “Sunshine” — where the band croons ‘You’re the center of my solar system’ — or in “History Channel,” where Brady Parks sings “I think you’re shifting all my tectonic plates.” Picking the album’s opening and closing tracks was the easiest part of the process, Brady said. “Angels,” he said, was one of the first songs he wrote for “8th Wonder,” and it helped shape the direction of the rest of the album.
The title track, Brady said, best exemplifies what the band wanted to capture: a larger-than-life sound and feeling. “8th Wonder,” the song, asks listeners to consider their own “eighth wonders,” whatever they love or latch onto. “Sometimes when you’re chasing this dream, there’s a lot of ups and downs,” Megan said. “It’s a freaking roller coaster ride. But there are these moments that we’re on stage or we’re recording where you literally [get] goosebumps and you’re just like, ‘This is it. … This is why we’re doing this.’”
