The Men - Open Your Heart
Review by Massimo Paolini
The album Open Your Heart by Men has been receiving rave reviews from critics and fans alike. The band, consisting of JD Samson, Michael O'Neill, and Ginger Brooks Takahashi, has created a unique and captivating sound that blends elements of punk, dance, and pop.
The album's title track, "Open Your Heart," is a standout with its infectious beat and catchy chorus. Other highlights include "Off Our Backs," which features powerful lyrics about gender and social justice, and "Credit Card Babies," a satirical take on consumerism.
The band's commitment to queer and feminist politics is evident throughout the album, and their message is delivered with a sense of urgency and passion. The production is slick and polished, but still retains a raw energy that gives the songs an edge.
