The album kicks off with the infectious “Blasting,” an upbeat track that instantly sets a positive and danceable tone.
The following track, “Children,” takes a more introspective turn with its nostalgic undertones, reminiscent of Manu Chao’s work.
The band’s ability to switch between upbeat and contemplative moods is impressive, showcasing their versatility.
“La Cocina” introduces a more Latin-inspired flavour, highlighting the band’s diverse musical influences.
“Strong Island” offers a heavier, rock-oriented sound with a hint of Brazilian group O Rappa, while the psychedelic “IRIE Tikiland” creates a hypnotic and dreamlike atmosphere that made me imagine odalisques sinuously dancing on the beach
The album also includes a unique rendition of Nirvana’s “All Apologies,” which is given a more ethereal and carefree feel. The album closes with “La Morena (feat. Juan Jurado),” a catchy reggaeton-influenced track with strong Latin vibes.
All the songs on the album are solid, this band shows to have endless creativity.
IRIEspect’s album is a solid and enjoyable listen. The band’s visionary approach to music is evident in their ability to create a sound that is familiar and fresh is unique.
