Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Foreign Fields, you've done it again. THIS IS HOW WE FLY is a musical rollercoaster that takes listeners on a journey through genres and emotions.
From the hauntingly beautiful vocals to the intricate instrumentation, this album is a masterpiece in experimental folk. The blending of traditional folk elements with electronic beats creates a sound that is both familiar and refreshing.
Tracks like "Lost in Translation" and "Wanderlust" transport listeners to another world, while "Into the Unknown" and "Starlight Serenade" tug at the heartstrings with their poignant lyrics.
But it's not all serious business with Foreign Fields. Songs like "Dance Like Nobody's Watching" and "Party in the Rain" bring a sense of fun and frivolity to the album, reminding us that music is meant to be enjoyed.
Overall, THIS IS HOW WE FLY is a triumph for Foreign Fields. They have managed to push the boundaries of folk music while still staying true to their roots. It's a wild ride that will leave you wanting more. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let Foreign Fields take you on a musical adventure you won't soon forget.
