Our Take

Ah, Big Country's debut album "The Crossing" is like a bonkers blend of Scottish folk, new wave pop, and good ol' fashioned rock'n'roll. It's as if The Proclaimers found themselves in a jam session with U2 and Bruce Springsteen - and somehow, it works.

Stuart Adamson's distinctive guitar sound is the driving force behind this album, ringing out like a battle cry on tracks like "In a Big Country" and "Fields of Fire". The band's anthemic choruses and uplifting melodies will have you fist-pumping and belting out lyrics with abandon.

But it's not all bagpipes and kilts - there's a darker undercurrent to the lyrics, with tales of loss, longing, and the struggle for identity. "Chance" and "Harvest Home" showcase Big Country's introspective side, adding depth to the album's overall sound.

"The Crossing" is a nostalgic trip back to the 80s, but it's also undeniably timeless. With its infectious energy and heartfelt lyrics, this album is a must-listen for anyone who loves a good sing-along and a rocking guitar solo. So grab your tartan scarf and crank up the volume - Big Country is here to transport you to a land of sonic bliss. Cheers to that, lads.
