De Aal - In de File

Review by Syahira Shop

In de File, the ninth studio album by Dutch band De Aal, is a pleasant surprise for fans and critics alike. Released in 2016, the album showcases the band's signature sound of catchy folk-pop tunes with lyrics that are both humorous and poignant.

The album opens with the upbeat track "Lange Weg", which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song features the band's signature accordion sound, and lead singer Huub van der Lubbe's unique vocal style. The album's title track, "In de File", is a standout song that tells the story of a traffic jam and the frustrations that come with it. The song's catchy chorus and playful lyrics make it a fan favorite.

Other notable tracks on the album include "Dichterbij de Horizon", a romantic ballad about the beauty of nature, and "Mooi Weer", a song about finding joy in the simple things in life. The album also features a cover of the classic Dutch song "Het Dorp", which the band puts their own spin on.
