Our Take

Bleeding Heart Pigeons' latest album, "A Hallucination," is a kaleidoscopic journey through the twisted minds of these Irish indie rockers. From the moment the record kicks off with the enigmatic track "Mind Hive," you know you're in for a wild ride.

The band's eclectic influences are on full display here, with hints of Radiohead, Arcade Fire, and even a touch of Bowie shining through. The production is lush and dreamy, with layers of synths and guitars weaving in and out of each other like a psychedelic tapestry.

Lead singer Mícheál Keating's haunting vocals soar over the intricate instrumentation, adding an ethereal quality to the already otherworldly sound. Tracks like "Haunt Me" and "Ongoing Thing" showcase the band's knack for crafting catchy yet experimental pop songs that stick in your head long after the music has stopped.

But it's on the album's epic closer, "The End is Nigh," that Bleeding Heart Pigeons truly shine. Clocking in at over ten minutes, the track builds and builds to a cathartic climax that leaves you reeling. It's a fitting end to a record that is as ambitious as it is captivating.

In conclusion, "A Hallucination" is a mesmerising journey through the minds of one of the most exciting bands in indie rock today. Bleeding Heart Pigeons have crafted a truly visionary album that demands repeat listens. Don't sleep on this one, it's a trip worth taking.
