Bashful - Amour Fou

Review by Katie Greenhalf

Bashful's album Amour Fou is a captivating blend of indie rock and dream pop that showcases the band's talent for crafting intricate and emotive soundscapes. The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "New Year's Day," which sets the tone for the rest of the record with its lush instrumentation and introspective lyrics.

Throughout the album, Bashful's lead singer delivers mesmerizing vocals that perfectly complement the band's atmospheric sound. Tracks like "Underwater" and "The Ocean" showcase the band's ability to create a sense of otherworldly beauty that transports the listener to a different realm entirely.

Despite the album's dreamy sound, there are moments of raw vulnerability that make the record all the more compelling. "Walls" is a standout track that deals with themes of heartbreak and loss, and the band's ability to convey such complex emotions through their music is truly impressive.
