Shy Boys - Talk Loud (2020) Hi Res

Every sound is imbued with emotion, every flick of the wrist is meaningful. On 'Fraid I Might Die,' the band grapples with mortality and the passage of time coupled with some of the most interesting vocal arrangements ever featured on a Shy Boys song. On other stand-outs, like 'View From The Sky,' the band highlight their varied musical influences by blending doo-wop backing vocals with lasershow synth work. 'Talk Loud' is cinematic, sparkly, jumpy, and haunting all at the same time - a group of songs that have the heart-string-yanking ability of music concocted in a laboratory, while still feeling heavily human. It's complicated, it's swirly, it surrounds you and extends itself deep into your brain.
