Greta Van Fleet.
The band that continues to polarize music fans like Marmite on toast.
Love them or hate them, there's no denying their retro rock vibes are as strong as a pint of warm ale.
And their latest album, "Starcatcher," is no exception.
Upon first listen, one can't help but be transported back to the heyday of classic rock.
The nostalgic guitar riffs, wailing vocals, and thumping drums are like a time machine to the 70s.
But don't be fooled by their throwback sound – Greta Van Fleet manages to infuse their own modern twist into the mix.
The title track, "Starcatcher," is an anthemic ballad that showcases frontman Josh Kiszka's impressive vocal range.
His falsetto soars higher than Big Ben on a foggy London night, while the band behind him provides a solid foundation of crunchy guitar licks and pounding basslines.
But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "Starcatcher." Tracks like "Midnight Madness" and "Electric Sky" veer into darker territory, exploring themes of love, loss, and existential dread.
It's a refreshing change of pace from the typical rock album, adding depth and complexity to an otherwise straightforward genre.
In conclusion, "Starcatcher" may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those who appreciate a good throwback with a modern twist, Greta Van Fleet delivers in spades.
So put on your bell-bottoms, grab a pint of ale, and let the rock n' roll nostalgia wash over you like a wave on the River Thames.
Cheers!
