Not only was the former Team USA defender talented on the pitch, he also sings on pitch with the release of Infinity Spaces, his third - yes, third - full-length original album. But the flame-maned Lalas is no Shaq-trying-to-rap. Infinity Spaces comes a long six years after his previous effort, Far From Close, which was released a full decade after his debut album, 1998’s Ginger. This third album is clearly the work of a man given to careful consideration. After all, just look at that minimalist album art - the aesthetic choice of someone given to deep introspection. All of Lalas’ artistic choices on Infinity Spaces are pretty brave, actually.
