comment...: |
“IX” is the debut album by the South African band Blvd Hvnny. Originally
started as a solo project, it has since evolved into a five-piece band. This
debut contains nine tracks.
The opening track breathes the spirit of the ’80s, blending shimmering synths
with guitar and a deep, seductive vocal. The New-Wave influence soon shifts
into a dark, elegant fusion of New-Wave and Chanson. Hints of Nick Cave are
clearly present, which makes the inclusion of a highly successful cover of “The
Weeping Song” feel perfectly natural. Another surprise is a haunting rendition
of Yazoo’s “Winter Kills”.
The songs are strikingly varied yet remain strongly interconnected. Whether the
mood turns wilder, heavier, or leans toward a more Pop-driven sound with a
subtle Depeche Mode flavor, the album never loses its grip. Guest vocalists
contribute along the way, enriching both the diversity and the overall quality
of the record.
All in all, “IX” is an enthralling listen from start to finish
