Our Take
Ah, Babybird - the enigmatic band from Sheffield that never fails to surprise. Their latest album, "The Pleasures of Self Destruction," is a rollercoaster of emotions and sonic landscapes that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about music. From the melancholic opening track "Can't Love You Anymore" to the bizarre yet captivating "Bad Old Man," this album takes you on a journey through the darkest corners of lead singer Stephen Jones' mind. His haunting vocals and poetic lyrics tug at your heartstrings, while the eclectic instrumentation keeps you on your toes. Standout tracks like "Unloveable" and "Out of Sight" showcase Babybird's ability to blend dark, introspective themes with catchy melodies that will have you humming along for days. And let's not forget the hauntingly beautiful "Failed Suicide Club," a stark reminder of the fragility of life and the power of human connection. While some may find the album's raw emotion and experimental sound off-putting, those willing to take the plunge will be rewarded with a deeply affecting listening experience. "The Pleasures of Self Destruction" is a fearless exploration of the human psyche, wrapped in a package of infectious melodies and haunting lyrics. Babybird may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those who dare to dive in, this album is a dark and twisted delight.
