NELL IS BACK!

















One of the many underrated artists out there in the very competitive korean industry, Nell's path to music is ventures with uncomplicated, dreamy tunes meshed together with beautiful haunting vocals.

Immediately with the first track Boy - X, a simple distorted riff followed by a refreshing explosion of a piano and drum accompaniment which then dies down to simple beat and those wonderfully haunting vocals, then another burst as it enters into the chorus. My utmost favorite among the whole album. Boy - X is Escaping Gravity.

Haven, the sole english track is a tribute to those beautiful vocals begins with another simple distorted tune and soft repetitions of 'Don't cry, over me.' Then at the 4:00 mark it picks up and inexplicable sadness rushes over you as a faint 'Don't cry, over me.' is heard in the background.

My feels...









Mama rates this (10/10)!

Biased. Biased. Biased.
