Our Take

The Courteeners' latest offering, "Concrete Love," is like a hearty English breakfast - comforting, satisfying, and slightly greasy. Lead singer Liam Fray's lyrics are as sharp as ever, tackling themes of love, loss, and the complexities of modern life with his signature swagger. The album kicks off with the infectious single "White Lies," a catchy tune that will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in no time.

As the album progresses, we are treated to the gritty guitar riffs and anthemic choruses that the Courteeners are known for. Tracks like "How Good It Was" and "Summer" showcase the band's ability to craft catchy, radio-friendly tunes that still pack an emotional punch. Fray's vocals are raw and emotive, drawing the listener in with every impassioned wail.

But it's not all sunny skies and catchy hooks on "Concrete Love." The band delves into darker territory with tracks like "Saboteur" and "Dreamers," exploring themes of betrayal and disillusionment. The result is a well-rounded album that offers something for every mood.

In conclusion, "Concrete Love" may not reinvent the wheel, but it doesn't need to. The Courteeners know what they're good at, and they deliver it with aplomb on this solid album. Pour yourself a pint, crank up the volume, and let the music wash over you - you won't be disappointed.
