Jūreiviai - Senam Laive

Review by Ody Dasa Fitranto

Jūreiviai's latest album, Senam Laive, is a captivating and unique blend of traditional Lithuanian folk music and contemporary sounds. The album features a wide range of instruments, including the kanklės (a Lithuanian zither), accordion, and various percussion instruments, all of which are beautifully arranged and played.

The vocals on Senam Laive are also a highlight, with the group's lead singer delivering powerful and emotive performances that perfectly capture the spirit of the songs. The lyrics are all in Lithuanian, but even non-speakers will be able to appreciate the passion and energy that Jūreiviai bring to each track.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Nakties Rateliai," which features haunting vocals and a hypnotic percussive rhythm. The song builds to a powerful climax, with the kanklės and accordion weaving intricate melodies around the vocals.
