Our Take

Robyn Hitchcock & Venus 3's latest effort, "Goodnight Oslo," is like a whimsical journey through a psychedelic wonderland. With Hitchcock's signature quirky lyrics and Venus 3's funky instrumentals, this album is a must-listen for any self-proclaimed music aficionado.

The album kicks off with the infectious track "What You Is," a lively tune that perfectly sets the tone for the rest of the album. Hitchcock's distinctive voice shines through on tracks like "Up to Our Nex" and "Intrigue in Tangiers," showcasing his ability to weave intricate storytelling into catchy melodies.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "Goodnight Oslo." Tracks like "Hurry for the Sky" and "Harmony in My Head" delve into darker themes, adding depth and complexity to an otherwise lighthearted album.

Overall, "Goodnight Oslo" is a delightful mix of whimsy and introspection, with Hitchcock and Venus 3 delivering a truly unique listening experience. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let the magic of Robyn Hitchcock & Venus 3 transport you to a musical wonderland unlike anything you've ever experienced before. Cheers to that, mate!
