Our Take

The DROWNING CRAZE certainly know how to make a splash with their latest compilation album "Singles 81/82". This collection of tracks takes us on a wild ride through the vibrant music scene of the early 80s, with each song dripping in synth-heavy goodness and infectious energy.

From the infectious hooks of "Out of My Mind" to the pulsating rhythms of "Trance", the DROWNING CRAZE showcase their eclectic sound and ability to keep listeners on their toes. Each track is like a mini dance party waiting to happen, with layers of electronic beats and catchy melodies that will have you tapping your foot in no time.

But it's not all fun and games with the DROWNING CRAZE – beneath the glittering surface lies a darker, more melancholic edge that adds depth to their music. Tracks like "The Last Time" and "Treading Water" delve into themes of heartache and longing, balancing out the album's more upbeat moments with a touch of introspection.

Overall, "Singles 81/82" is a must-listen for anyone looking to dive into the retro synth-pop sound of the 80s. The DROWNING CRAZE have crafted a collection of tracks that are equal parts fun, quirky, and undeniably cool – a perfect soundtrack for your next dance party or late-night drive. Don't sleep on this one, folks – it's a gem that deserves a place in your music library.
