With a slew of albums under their belt, including 2005’s “One Fell Swoop,” 2007’s follow-up “No Really, I’m Fine” (which was released on Warner and reached the number 2 spot on Billboard’s Top Heatseekers chart), 2012’s “Gestalt,” and 2018’s EP “Hivemind,” the Spill Canvas has returned with “Conduit,” its first LP in almost a decade. Listening to these 10 songs, it’s clear that “Conduit” is more than a new Spill Canvas album. Rather, it’s the start of a second phase for the band. Together, the band reached deep into Thomas’ heart and soul to create something that bristles with the earnest, emotional urgency that was always at the band’s core, but which also reflects who Thomas is now and everything that made him into that person.
