After five years away, The Neighbourhood return with (((((ultraSOUND))))) - a record that feels less like a comeback than a renewal. The California band that defined black-and-white pop melancholy in the 2010s has found color again, or at least shades of it.
Recorded first at Conway Studios in Los Angeles with longtime collaborator Justyn Pilbrow, then finished in a cramped Van Nuys rehearsal space called The Beehive with Jono Dorr producing, (((((ultraSOUND))))) captures Jesse Rutherford, Zach Abels, Jeremy Freedman, Mikey Margott, and Brandon Fried reconnecting after a three-year hiatus. "We didn't have to make this record," Abels says. "We came back because we wanted to. It was like being in the garage again - fun and not so controlled."
Without a label deadline or anyone looking over their shoulders, the sessions unfolded naturally. "There was no one telling us we had to do it," Fried says. "We were self-governing for the first time - no label, no contract, just us deciding to make music again."
Across fifteen tracks, the band strips back the gloss and trusts feeling over flash. "Private" - the song that gives the album its name - folds self-examination into a hypnotic pulse. "Sometimes I didn't have the words," Rutherford says. "You'd need an ultrasound to see what I was feeling - to look inside and go, oh, that's what's happening."
Grey - the color they once rejected - runs through (((((ultraSOUND))))) like a quiet revelation. They even wrote "No Grey" back in 2013 as a declaration of absolutes. Now the shade shows up in the artwork and in several songs, a metaphor for nuance and growth. "Everything used to be black and white," Rutherford says. "Now it's grey."
(((((ultraSOUND))))) sounds like a band with nothing to prove and everything to say - five musicians rediscovering the balance between control and chaos that made them matter in the first place.

Absolutely loved the show, but missed half of The Neighbourhood due to traffic/ no parking and had to park a mile away
I’ve been waiting for a while for an opportunity to see the neighbourhood in LA, and they finally came! Surpassed my expectations by a mile, and made for an amazing and memorable night at the bowl.
The boys were amazing once again. I love seeing them over and over. Such a great band <3
i am talkin elegant, i’m talking beautiful. more than these i can’t even think of a word that explains how great this was. the emotions, the experience, his voice was so peaceful and amazing it brought tears to my eyes a few times especially when daddy issues played my soul felt touched. i also accidentally kicked someone’s drink n felt bad but they didn’t have zelle so i felt like thanos walking away like “i’m sorry little one”
The lines to get in were actually pretty quick, and the seating was very easy to find. None the less, it was the greatest night of my life.
What should have taken 1 hour actually ended up being 3 hours to get the Hollywood bowl. The parking was horrible. We missed more than an hour of the concert. Keep in mind we were good on time to make it to the event. NEVER going back to the Hollywood bowl. From what we could experience from the concert, it was great but sad that we missed most of it.
BEST. BAND. EVER. Their music is so good. I wish I had gotten closer seats though😕
The venue was perfect and it was super easy to get there. The atmosphere was amazing and the Band played most of the hits with a lot of others .
This was my first time seeing The Neighbourhood live and they did not disappoint. Jesse, the lead singer sounds amazing performing live. The band was great and there were many guitar and drum solos in between costumes changes. The ambiance was great. Overall it was a very enjoyable concert. I can’t wait to see them again.
The Neighbourhood is so amazing live! Put on a great show, so glad I was able to see it.
This was the most incredible thing I have ever experienced musically speaking. The Hollywood Bowl is a bit crazy when it comes to parking but it’s all part of the amazing experience I had. The Neighbourhood is unmatched and I will go to every single concert they have
This band always puts on a great show, wish it didn’t feel like it had ended so quickly. Venue could have bigger TV screens for the people further back.
they are amazing performers ! absolutely loved every second of it !!
the band put on an amazing show, it was so great seeing a band i looked up to as a teenager. the crowd was great, too! i plan on seeing them every single show they have in LA– it was so worth it.
they were amazing. i liked the energy n everyone was so nice!! the beginning was chefs kiss when chip chrome came out. and the end!! the openers were neat as well. 11/10 experience!!!!
The neighborhood was a great talented band to see. The venue is beautiful but the traffic and parking was horrible. I would not go back to the Hollywood bowl for any future events due the horrible parking, may be if they invest in more parking attendants it might make a difference.
We got to the Hollywood venue and there was no parking whatsoever, we kept circling around to find parking but The Neighbourhood already started playing. my experience was absolutely terrible.
This was my first time at the Hollywood Bowl and I loved all that it had to offer! Including the shuttle option, I found it very convenient. I got to enjoy my Neighbourhood concert the best way possible!
OMG traffic to the Hollywood Bowl was a nightmare. Traffic outside was a nightmare and $60 valet parking was robbery. Will definitely skip Hollywood Bowl going forward. The show was OK. Seen them dozens of times.
their opening acts were just plain terrible and it took wayy too long. The neighbourhood played songs by albums which sucked too.
