Kestrels' latest album, Light and Sound, is a thrilling journey into the world of shoegaze and dream pop. The band's signature sound is on full display here, with lush, swirling guitars and atmospheric vocals creating a dreamy, otherworldly vibe.
From the opening track, "Vanishing Point," it's clear that Kestrels have honed their sound to perfection. The song is a slow-burning epic, with shimmering guitars and haunting vocals building to a crescendo of noise and distortion.
Throughout the album, Kestrels explore a range of moods and emotions, from the dreamy melancholy of "Grey and Blue" to the anthemic energy of "No Alternative." The band's ability to blend different textures and styles is particularly impressive, with elements of post-rock, punk, and even grunge adding depth and complexity to the songs.
