China Crisis - Hanna Hanna
Review by Kâmil VARINCA
Hanna Hanna, the 1985 album by China Crisis, is a beautifully crafted collection of songs that showcases the band's unique blend of new wave, pop, and art rock. The album features some of the band's most popular tracks, such as "Black Man Ray" and "King in a Catholic Style," as well as lesser-known gems like "Hanna Hanna" and "The Soul Awakening."
The album's production is impeccable, with lush arrangements and intricate instrumentation that perfectly complement the band's poetic lyrics and melodic hooks. The songs are full of dreamy, atmospheric soundscapes that transport the listener to a world of romantic longing and introspective reflection.
China Crisis's signature style is evident throughout Hanna Hanna, with its mix of electronic and acoustic instruments, intricate vocal harmonies, and poetic lyrics that explore themes of love, loss, and self-discovery. The band's unique approach to songwriting and arrangement is what sets them apart from their peers in the new wave and pop scenes of the 1980s.
