Snídaně S Novou Starou, the latest album by Žlutý Pes, is a delightful mix of pop, rock, and folk. The Czech band has been around since the 1980s and has released several albums, but this one stands out for its catchy melodies, clever lyrics, and upbeat energy.
The album opens with "Začít znova," a lively tune that sets the tone for the rest of the tracks. Lead singer Jan Hrubý's voice is strong and confident, and the band's instrumentation is tight and polished. "Chtěl bych tě líbat" is a playful love song that showcases the band's sense of humor and their ability to create catchy hooks.
The album's title track, "Snídaně S Novou Starou," is a standout with its irresistible chorus and infectious rhythm. It's a song about the joys of starting a new day with an old friend, and it's impossible not to sing along. "Zavolej" is another highlight, with its jangly guitars and sing-along chorus.
The album slows down a bit with "Zmizel mi kus mého života," a poignant ballad about lost love and regret. Hrubý's vocals are heartfelt and emotive, and the band's sparse instrumentation creates a haunting atmosphere. "Bůh" is a more upbeat track that tackles the theme of spirituality with a dose of irreverence.
