Our Take

Manchester indie-pop darlings Pale Waves have returned with their latest offering, "Smitten," and it's safe to say we're absolutely lovestruck. The band effortlessly marries catchy hooks with dreamy synths and infectious melodies, creating a sound that is both familiar and fresh. Lead vocalist Heather Baron-Gracie's ethereal vocals soar above the shimmering instrumentation, drawing listeners in with her raw, emotional delivery. Tracks like "Easy" and "Tomorrow" showcase Pale Waves at their most vulnerable, with introspective lyrics that hit you right in the feels. But don't be fooled by the dreamy exterior - beneath the glossy production lies a darker edge, as evidenced by the haunting "Burn" and the pulsating "Falling in Love." Pale Waves aren't afraid to delve into the complexities of relationships and heartbreak, adding a layer of depth to their otherwise sugary sweet sound. Overall, "Smitten" is a delightful journey through the highs and lows of love, expertly crafted by a band that knows how to hit all the right notes. So grab your dancing shoes and get ready to be whisked away by Pale Waves' enchanting tunes - you'll be smitten in no time.

About the artist

Pale Waves

If Pitchfork Magazine were to write about PALE WAVES, it might look something like this: PALE WAVES: The Enigmatic Quirks of Manchester's Pop Sensations Hailing from the rainy streets of Manchester, PALE WAVES has been making waves in the music industry with their infectious blend of shimmering synths, catchy hooks, and dark, brooding lyrics. The band's unique sound, which combines elements of synthpop, indie rock, and gothic romance, has garnered them a loyal fan base and critical acclaim. Led by the enigmatic frontwoman Heather Baron-Gracie, PALE WAVES has a knack for crafting anthemic pop songs that are as catchy as they are thought-provoking. With her signature black eyeliner and eccentric outfits, Baron-Gracie cuts a striking figure on stage, commanding the audience's attention with her magnetic presence and powerhouse vocals. But PALE WAVES is more than just a one-woman show. The band's dynamic instrumentation, courtesy of guitarist Hugo Silvani, bassist Charlie Wood, and drummer Ciara Doran, creates a rich sonic tapestry that perfectly complements Baron-Gracie's ethereal vocals. Together, they create a sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking, drawing inspiration from 80s synthpop and 90s alternative rock while putting their own modern twist on it. With a string of hit singles, sold-out shows, and a dedicated fan base, PALE WAVES is poised to take over the music world one catchy chorus at a time. So grab your eyeliner, lace up your Doc Martens, and get ready to dance the night away with Manchester's hottest pop sensations.
