24. Hat Guy

Confession: I’m a hat guy.

The singer drew influence from what might ungenerously be called CD-era bloat—those sprawling, 70-plus-minute discs from the ’90s and early aughts, loaded with genre-mingling ambition and an anything-goes spirit. That explains why Enough is so wide-ranging, and why it has a more pronounced hip-hop, electronica, and trip-hop influence than the group’s past work, with wobbly beats underlining the falsetto hooks of “Imabeliever” and a reggaeton rhythm coursing through “We Used to Build Things” as it shifts from programmed beats to live instrumentation.
