Album: VICINITY Viiiin
Upon first listen, VICINITY Viiiin hits you like a double-decker bus in the middle of London rush hour – it's loud, brash, and impossible to ignore. The latest offering from enigmatic artist Viiiin sees them continue to push boundaries and defy genre constraints in ways that both impress and confuse.
From the opening track "Neon Nightmare," which combines elements of grime, punk, and 80s pop, to the hauntingly beautiful ballad "City of Shadows," this album is a rollercoaster of emotions and sonic experimentation. Viiiin's unique vocal delivery, reminiscent of a cybernetic Björk, adds an extra layer of intrigue and mystique to each track.
Standout moments include the pulsating electronica of "Concrete Jungle" and the euphoric power ballad "Stargazer." However, there are times when the album veers into self-indulgence, particularly on the 12-minute epic "Metropolis Meltdown," which feels like a bit of a slog at times.
Overall, VICINITY Viiiin is a bold and ambitious statement from Viiiin, showcasing their fearless creativity and willingness to push the boundaries of what music can be. While not every experiment lands perfectly, the album is sure to captivate and confound listeners in equal measure. 4 stars.
