Our Take

The Proper Ornaments have crafted a musical masterpiece with their latest album, "Waiting For The Summer." This record is like a warm hug from your favourite gran, comforting and familiar yet surprising in all the right ways. The band's blend of jangly guitars, dreamy vocals, and infectious melodies is a sonic delight that transports you to a sun-soaked beach, even if you're stuck in rainy old Blighty.

From the shimmering opener "Please Release Me" to the melancholic closer "Music of the Sun," every track on this album is a gem. The band's knack for writing catchy hooks and infectious choruses is undeniable, and each song will have you tapping your foot and singing along in no time. But it's not all sunshine and rainbows; there's a subtle darkness lurking beneath the surface, adding depth and complexity to the overall sound.

The production on this album is top-notch, with each instrument shining through without overpowering the others. The dreamy, laid-back vibes of the music are perfectly complemented by the intelligent lyrics, which touch on themes of love, longing, and the passage of time. It's a perfect soundtrack for lazy summer days and contemplative evenings, guaranteed to bring a smile to your face and a tear to your eye.

In conclusion, "Waiting For The Summer" is a must-listen for fans of indie pop and dreamy shoegaze. The Proper Ornaments have delivered a truly special album that will stand the test of time. So grab a cold pint, sit back, and let the music wash over you. You won't be disappointed. Cheers!
