Our Take

After listening to WHYTE HORSES' latest album "Hard Times," I have to say, I'm both confused and charmed. The Manchester-based band takes listeners on a psychedelic journey filled with whimsical melodies and quirky lyrics that will leave you scratching your head in the best way possible.

The album opens with the infectious track "I Saw the Light," a catchy tune that will have you tapping your feet and bopping your head in no time. The band's unique blend of indie pop and folk influences creates a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly original.

Throughout the album, lead singer Dom Thomas delivers his signature deadpan vocals with just the right amount of cheeky irony. The dream-like production, complete with swirling synths and lush string arrangements, adds a layer of otherworldly charm to the music.

Tracks like "Big Hard Times" and "Frosi" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend genres and create a sound that is all their own. The album's standout track, "Tocyn," is a nostalgic nod to 60s psychedelic pop, with its shimmering guitars and sun-drenched harmonies.

Overall, "Hard Times" is a delightfully eccentric album that will appeal to fans of indie music looking for something a bit off-kilter. WHYTE HORSES have crafted a record that is both strange and wonderful, cementing their status as one of the most exciting bands in the UK music scene. So put on your headphones, sit back, and let the magic of WHYTE HORSES whisk you away to a world of musical madness.
