Our Take

On their latest offering, "Wake Up," YOUNGBLOOD HAWKE serves up a delicious blend of infectious beats, soaring melodies, and enough energy to power a small village. From the opening track "Pressure," it's clear that this band means business - in the best possible way. The album is a rollercoaster of musical euphoria, with each song building on the last to create a sonic experience that is both exhilarating and addictive.

Frontman Sam Martin's vocals are pitch-perfect, effortlessly gliding over the band's synth-heavy soundscapes. Tracks like "We Come Running" and "Rootless" showcase his range and versatility, while the whole band's tight musicianship keeps the energy levels high throughout.

But what really sets YOUNGBLOOD HAWKE apart is their ability to mix sunny pop sensibilities with darker, more introspective lyrics. Songs like "Sleepless Streets" and "Stars (Hold On)" delve into themes of longing and self-discovery, adding a layer of depth to the album that elevates it above your average radio-friendly fare.

Overall, "Wake Up" is a triumph for YOUNGBLOOD HAWKE, cementing their status as one of the most exciting bands in the indie pop scene. So go ahead, hit that play button and let yourself get swept away by the infectious energy of this brilliant album. Trust us, you won't regret it.
