Nearly two decades away and Calla are diving straight back in with a full album rather than dipping their toes in gently. That's the kind of confidence we can get behind. After those early 2024 singles suggested they'd found their groove again, De Facto feels like a genuine statement of intent from the New York outfit, and "Paralyzed" shows they've lost none of that angular indie rock edge. For anyone who remembers when Strength In Numbers was doing the rounds, this is a full return; for everyone else, it's a chance to see what two decades of living gives a band's songwriting.
