So many styles of new wave: Siouxsie & The Banshees, Berlin, and more. Led by gritty guitars, with beats that could be hanging out at any retro club at 2 am.
Delaware skillfully blend melancholy and pop music together. They steal Keane, Placebo, and Snow Patrol blueprints and create melodic Britpop-inspired sound.
Highly anticipated as the successor to Northern Light. While not produced by Rammstein producer Jacob Hellner, it shows a return to the roots of their sound.
The songs range between 120-140 BPM, the music is grittier than the previous releases, and a more vibrant blend of electronica, trance, and melody is offered.
It’s mostly a rapid, guitar-drenched onslaught until “Real Thing,” which gives you the seductive and sultry side of Lucia, as opposed to the barks and growls.
As usual, the music is formulaic, but with every album, you’re never let down. The vocals continue to evolve into a cleaner sound, and the production is superb.
