Tears' latest album, Romantic, is a dreamy and atmospheric journey through the emotions of love and heartbreak. The band's signature blend of shoegaze and post-punk is present in full force, with shimmering guitar textures and haunting vocals that evoke a sense of longing and nostalgia.
The album opens with the ethereal "Loveless," which sets the tone for the rest of the record with its swirling guitars and melancholic lyrics. From there, the band explores a range of sonic landscapes, from the driving rhythms of "Heartbeat" to the hazy, introspective "Fading Away."
One of the standout tracks is "Lost in You," which features a pulsing bassline and soaring chorus that will stick in your head long after the song has ended. Another highlight is the haunting "Ghost," which showcases the band's ability to create an eerie and atmospheric mood.
Romantic is a beautifully crafted album that showcases Tears' mastery of their genre. It's a must-listen for fans of shoegaze and post-punk, and anyone who appreciates music that is both introspective and emotionally resonant.
