Our Take
Our Take
Ah, MINOR POET, the cheeky chaps with a knack for creating catchy tunes and witty lyrics. Their latest offering, "The Good News," is a delightful mix of indie pop and psychedelic rock that is sure to have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in no time.
The album kicks off with the infectious track "Tabula Rasa," a bouncy number that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Lead singer Andrew Carter's distinctive vocals float effortlessly over shimmering guitars and dreamy synths, creating a sound that is both familiar and fresh.
Tracks like "Tropic of Cancer" and "Flap Your Year" showcase the band's ability to craft clever, introspective lyrics that are sure to resonate with listeners. Whether they're pondering life's big questions or riffing on the mundanity of daily existence, MINOR POET never fail to entertain.
But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "The Good News." The band also delves into darker territory with tracks like "Reverse Conversion Therapy," a brooding meditation on self-acceptance and identity. It's a welcome change of pace that adds depth and nuance to the album.
Overall, "The Good News" is a triumph for MINOR POET, showcasing their talent for creating smart, infectious pop songs that stick in your head long after the music stops. With this album, the band proves that sometimes, good news really does come in the form of a killer record.
