Nilüfer Yanya - Painless

Release DateMarch 4th, 2022

you should never judge a person based on their name, or album cover.

Review: I'll be honest, i overlooked this because i thought it would just be another abstract jazzy performance piece from the UK. But it's just 12 songs, cut into digestible pop sized songs. It took a while to get used to her voice, but i thought the instrumentals really carried the songs here. The guitar work just stay busy, at times, they remind me of radiohead. I became a believer in this album during track 3, "shameless" because i just love the way it sounds so soft, but when its time to attack, the guitars really sneak up on you.

SummaryReally interesting stuff, first half is stronger than the latter.

Favorite Songs: shameless, stabilise, company
Rating: 8/10
