True West - West Side Story
Review by Encuentro Nacional Feminista 2019
West Side Story is an album by True West that showcases the band's unique blend of post-punk and psychedelic rock. The album features 10 tracks that are both experimental and accessible, with catchy melodies and thoughtful lyrics.
The opening track, "And Then the Rain," sets the tone for the album with its swirling guitars and dreamy vocals. Other standout tracks include "Hollywood Holiday," which features a driving beat and a catchy chorus, and "Lucifer Sam," a cover of the Pink Floyd classic.
Throughout the album, True West demonstrates their ability to seamlessly blend different genres and create a sound that is all their own. The production is clean and polished, but still retains a raw energy that makes the songs feel alive.
