This Time Next Year We’ll Be Millionaires - Good Health Good Wealth
There’s something instantly disarming about an album title like This Time Next Year We’ll Be Millionaires. It’s bold, funny, and just self-aware enough to let you know the dream is real, even if the odds aren’t. That tension sits at the heart of this record, and it’s what makes it such a compelling listen.
Good Health Good Wealth sound like a band caught mid-thought process. The songs bounce between indie rock, lo-fi pop, and DIY rap aesthetics, often within the same track. Hooks arrive quickly, get scuffed up by distortion or warped synths, then pivot before they wear out their welcome. It’s messy in places, but intentionally so - this feels less like a polished statement and more like a snapshot of ambition happening in real time.
Lyrically, the album revolves around money, motivation, and the pressure to “make it,” without ever pretending those things are simple. There’s confidence here, but it’s the kind that wobbles if you stare at it too long. Braggy moments are undercut by doubt; hopeful lines land right next to anxiety. That push and pull gives the songs weight, especially when the band leans into honesty instead of punchlines.
What really holds the album together is its momentum. Even when tracks blur together stylistically, the sequencing makes it feel like one long conversation rather than a playlist of singles. You get the sense that each song is reacting to the one before it - building, second-guessing, recalibrating, and moving forward anyway.
This Time Next Year We’ll Be Millionaires isn’t trying to sell you a success story. It’s about wanting one badly enough to say it out loud, even if you’re not sure it’ll come true. That mix of ambition, humor, and vulnerability makes the album feel relatable in a way that slicker, more confident records often miss. It’s not about having it all figured out - it’s about still believing, just enough, that next year might be different.
