Fenech-Soler – Fenech-Soler
I had this album saved within my Spotify account, not hidden, just sitting there, virtually gathering dust. I vaguely remember listening to this quite some time ago, and must have just chucked it in a folder thinking I'd listen again soon, but I didn't, and I'm angry, well not really.
I'm going to take a wild guess that I am not in the majority liking this one, but that's the beauty of music, it splits opinion, and there is not one single band or artist that everyone will agree on, some people even like "The Rakes".
From the first track "Battlefields" I was drawn in, then "Lies", very catchy and had me taking notice, it's usually at this point I get excited, expectation grows and a wave of anger floods over me as I am yet again disappointed by the rest of the album, not this time though, it's genuinely a good album. I mention the first two tracks above, that is not to say the rest of the tracks are not of a similar good standard, "Demons". In terms of genre there is plenty of artists and making similar noise, but this just works for me, even with lead vocals not being fantastic, I would not have been disappointed if this would have been Bloc Party's follow up album.
Most definitely one of the better albums I've listened to recently, so much so, I have listened to it 3 times in 12 hours today. I have not looked into how old this album is, whether or not any were released as singles, so I could be stating the obvious now, but that is what comes from being in a musical bubble, and not listening to Radio stations.
Just listen to it.
