Our Take

MODERN STUDIES' latest offering, "We Are There," gleams like a shiny penny in the murky pond of indie-folk. Drenched in dreamy harmonies and ethereal instrumentation, this album is a delightful journey through the sonic cosmos.

Beginning with the opening track "Photographic," listeners are immediately transported to a whimsical landscape where fairy lights twinkle and unicorns prance. The haunting vocals of Emily Scott draw you in like a siren's call, while the delicate arrangements of the band sweep you off your feet like a gust of wind.

As the album progresses, tracks like "Heavy Water" and "Dive Bombing" showcase Modern Studies' ability to seamlessly blend folk, pop, and experimental elements into a cohesive and mesmerizing sound. The production quality is top-notch, with each instrument and vocal line given room to breathe and shine.

But the real standout of "We Are There" is the sense of wonder and joy that permeates each song. It's as if Modern Studies have bottled up a dose of sunshine and sprinkled it over every chord and lyric. By the time the album closes with the gentle lullaby of "Summer In A Small Town," you'll find yourself transported to a place of pure bliss.

In conclusion, "We Are There" is a modern masterpiece that will leave you smiling, singing, and dancing in pure delight. Modern Studies have truly outdone themselves with this gem of an album. So grab your coloured vinyl and let the magic begin.
