In Conflict is the fourth full-length album by Canadianindie rock artist Owen Pallett, released May 27, 2014 on Domino Records and Secret City Records.[2] The album features English ambient musician Brian Eno, who plays guitar and synthesizers as well as providing vocals.[2][3] It was released on standard vinyl and CD as well as a limited edition double heavyweight LP. It was recorded by Mark Lawson.[1] Canadian and Japanese special editions include exclusive bonus tracks.[4]
At Rolling Stone, Ned Raggett stated that "In Conflict is a pop treasure that's also a stirring, personal work of art."[14] Sasha Geffen of Consequence of Sound wrote that "In Conflict is ominous, gloomy, and marked with some of the most playful arrangements Pallett’s laid to date."[9] James Christopher Monger of AllMusic rated the album four-and-a-half stars, writing that the music contains a mixture of the "sugary opulence" reminiscent of Kishi Bashi and Jónsi and the "chilly refinement" akin to Björk circa 1997's Homogenic time period.
