The man on the front cover of 2024's Who Will You Believe, the eighth studio album from the Pernice Brothers, has a slightly scraggly beard with more salt than pepper in its coloring, and he's wearing clunky glasses and a trucker's cap that appears to be holding back a shaggy mop of graying hair. Joe Pernice never seemed to care much about being a fashion plate, but this portrait suggests a man who may be aging out of his status as the witty misanthrope and pop savant who crafted instant masterpieces like 1998's Overcome by Happiness and 2001's The World Won't End. A careful listen to Who Will You Believe reveals that Joe Pernice is indeed older and wiser, and his cynicism has been buffered into something a bit sadder and more realistic. However, he's still a brilliant pop songwriter, with a melodic sense that's graceful and the source of dozens of intelligent earworms, and his lyrics are literate meditations on his difficult relationships with friends, lovers, and himself, with the bon mots appearing in steady succession.
