Review by Jason Dykstra

Darkest Hour is a hauntingly beautiful album by Charlotte Martin that showcases her incredible songwriting skills and soulful vocals. With a mix of piano-driven ballads and more uptempo tracks, the album takes the listener on an emotional journey through heartbreak, resilience, and self-discovery.

The opening track, "The Dance", sets the tone for the album with its melancholic melody and introspective lyrics. Martin's voice is rich and emotive, conveying the pain and longing in the song's message. This is followed by the more upbeat "Beautiful Life", which has a catchy chorus and a message of hope and perseverance.

Other standout tracks include "Haunted", a haunting ballad that showcases Martin's impressive vocal range, and "Limits of Our Love", a powerful song about the struggle to find one's place in the world. The album's title track, "Darkest Hour", is a stunning piano ballad that showcases Martin's raw emotion and vulnerability.
