Our Take
Our Take
SPARE SNARE's latest offering, "Sounds", is a deliciously offbeat blend of indie rock and lo-fi charm that will have you tapping your feet and scratching your head in equal measure. From the moment the album kicks off with the catchy opener "Dancing on Thin Ice", it's clear that this Scottish band knows how to pack a punch while keeping things light and breezy.
Lead singer Jan Burnett's vocals have a wry, almost sardonic edge that adds a delightful layer of cheekiness to tracks like "Crooked Knocks" and "The Skeleton is Loose". The band's penchant for quirky lyrics and unconventional song structures gives "Sounds" a refreshingly unpredictable feel, keeping listeners on their toes throughout.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Baggage", a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases SPARE SNARE's softer, more introspective side. The delicate guitar work and melancholic melody make for a poignant listening experience that contrasts nicely with the album's more upbeat moments.
Overall, "Sounds" is a delightful offering from SPARE SNARE that proves they are still at the top of their game after all these years. With its infectious hooks, clever wordplay, and irresistible charm, this album is sure to win over both old fans and newcomers alike. So go ahead, give it a spin and let SPARE SNARE's unique sound transport you to a world of oddball brilliance.
