The result is a unique listening experience that bridges the gap between past and present.
The opening track, “Apocalypse Man,” plunges listeners into a smoky, noir-infused atmosphere reminiscent of a classic New Orleans jazz club. The band masterfully captures the essence of these genres, creating a mysterious mood.
“Circus” shifts gears, embracing folk influences to evoke the image of a travelling carnival. The infectious rhythm and catchy melody make it an instant earworm.
“Empty Page” detours into alternative rock territory, with a nostalgic melody that lingers in the mind. It’s a track that explores deeper emotions, showcasing the band’s versatility.
The standout track, “14 Flamingos,” is a bold experiment in genre-bending. The arrangement, incorporating trumpet elements reminiscent of Mexican music and a Balkan-inspired atmosphere, is both audacious and rewarding. Hints of Appalachian influence further enrich the sound.
The EP concludes with “Old Wet Sweater,” a poignant ballad that showcases the band’s storytelling abilities.
14 Flamingos have crafted a distinctive sound that blends tradition with innovation. Their music reminded me of artists like Goran Bregović so if you like that kind of music this is the band for you.
