Our Take

Ben Howard's latest offering, "Collections From The Whiteout," is a whimsical journey through haunting melodies and introspective lyrics. The album, like a fine wine, gets better with each listen as Howard showcases his songwriting prowess.

The opening track, "Follies Fixture," sets the tone for the album with its delicate guitar work and ethereal vocals. Howard's signature sound is on full display, blending folk and indie rock influences seamlessly.

Tracks like "What A Day" and "Crowhurst's Meme" showcase Howard's ability to craft emotive narratives that draw the listener in. The instrumentation is both intricate and atmospheric, creating a rich tapestry of sound.

However, not every track on the album hits the mark. "Rookery" feels a bit repetitive and lacks the depth found in other songs on the record. Despite this misstep, Howard's charisma and charm shine through, making for an enjoyable listening experience overall.

Overall, "Collections From The Whiteout" is a solid addition to Ben Howard's discography. While it may not be his strongest work to date, it still offers plenty of moments of beauty and introspection. Howard continues to prove himself as a versatile and captivating artist, leaving fans eagerly awaiting what he will deliver next.
