Our Take

SKEIN's latest offering, "Deadweight," is a rollercoaster ride of sonic exploration that will leave listeners feeling simultaneously exhilarated and exhausted. The album kicks off with a punchy guitar riff that sets the tone for what's to come, as frontman Alex's haunting vocals cut through the mix like a knife through butter.

The band's ability to seamlessly blend genres is on full display here, with elements of post-punk, shoegaze, and even a hint of electronica thrown into the mix. Tracks like "Lost in the Echoes" and "Empty Promises" showcase SKEIN's range and versatility, with catchy hooks and infectious melodies that will have you hitting repeat on your Spotify playlist.

However, it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "Deadweight." The darker, more brooding tracks like "Drowning in Despair" and "Haunted Memories" reveal a vulnerability and rawness that is both captivating and unsettling. This is where SKEIN truly shines, laying bare their emotions for all to see.

Overall, "Deadweight" is a triumph for SKEIN, showcasing their growth and maturity as a band. It's a daring and adventurous album that pushes boundaries and challenges the listener to think outside the box. So buckle up, dear readers, because SKEIN is taking us on one hell of a ride with "Deadweight."
