Our Take

Album: BOB - Leave The Straight Life Behind

Rating: 8.6

It's not often that a band named BOB comes along, bursting onto the scene with an album like Leave The Straight Life Behind. But then again, BOB are not your average band. This eclectic group manages to blend indie rock with elements of folk, punk, and even a touch of 80s synthpop, creating a sound that is truly unique and utterly captivating.

From the moment the first track kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. "She's Got The Power" is a catchy, upbeat anthem that will have you tapping your foot and nodding your head in no time. The jaunty guitars and infectious melodies will have you hooked from the get-go.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on Leave The Straight Life Behind. Tracks like "Broken Dreams" and "Lost In The City" delve into the darker side of life, with haunting lyrics and brooding instrumentals that will send shivers down your spine. This album is not afraid to explore the highs and lows of the human experience, and that's what makes it so compelling.

Overall, Leave The Straight Life Behind is a triumph for BOB. This album is a testament to their creativity, their talent, and their refusal to conform to the norms of the music industry. So take a break from the straight life and give BOB a spin - you won't regret it.
