Brookhurst - Brookhurst

Review by Kathy Merlino

The self-titled debut album from Brookhurst is a stunning collection of songs that showcase the band's impressive musicianship and songwriting skills. From start to finish, the album is a masterclass in indie rock, with each track offering something new and exciting.

Opening with the upbeat and catchy "Get It Right," the album immediately sets the tone for what's to come. The guitar riffs are infectious, and the vocals are delivered with just the right amount of energy and emotion. From there, the album takes the listener on a journey through a range of moods and styles.

Tracks like "Siren Song" and "Fading Out" are more introspective and melancholy, with haunting melodies and poetic lyrics. Meanwhile, songs like "Chasing the Sun" and "Burnout" are more upbeat and anthemic, with driving rhythms and soaring choruses.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Lost in Translation," which features a beautiful acoustic guitar intro and a powerful vocal performance from lead singer Brooke Day. The song builds to a stunning climax, with layers of harmonies and instrumentation creating a lush and immersive sound.

Summary by Kathy Merlino

Brookhurst's debut album is a must-listen for fans of indie rock. With its diverse range of styles and moods, it's an album that will keep listeners engaged and entertained from start to finish. Highly recommended.
