While time-travelling in parts sonically, 'The Overload' weaves a very-2021 storyline. Across the album's 11 tracks, an unnamed character - a bricolage of characters that Smith has met, imagined, or himself been - finds himself in quite the financial pickle, ricocheting from desk job to desperate illicit activity to police investigation, before culminating in the kind of half-cut personal epiphany that even the most law-abiding among us could relate to. Bookended by cheeky cameo's from 'Fixer Upper's' Graeme and a clear structure of four parts, there is no getting around it - Yard Act have written a soap opera.
