Status Quo - Rain
Review by Marvin Ordóñez
Rain, the 32nd studio album by British rock band Status Quo, is a highly anticipated addition to their extensive discography. Released in 2021, it features 11 tracks that showcase the band's signature sound of bluesy rock and roll.
The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Liberty Lane," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The title track, "Rain," follows and features a slower tempo and a more melancholic tone. However, the band's trademark guitar riffs and Francis Rossi's distinctive vocals keep the song from feeling too somber.
Other standout tracks on the album include "Cut Me Some Slack," a high-energy rock song, and "I Can't See The World," a bluesy ballad that highlights the band's ability to create emotional depth in their music.
