Review

Vansire's "The Modern Western World" (2022) whisks you away on an enchanting dream pop odyssey. With 19 tracks that melt into each other like butter on warm toast, this album is dripping in atmospheric vibes and introspective lyrics. It kicks off with "Cedar Lake Road" and the title track "The Modern Western World," both serving up those ethereal textures and catchy hooks that make you wanna stay in their sonic world forever.

The collaboration with MUNYA on "Vivienne" cranks the depth dial up a notch, showing off Vansire's flair for experimentation and genre-blending magic. Tracks like "Bryn Mawr All-Stars" and "Next Time In New York" are earworms, no doubt, flaunting memorable hooks. Meanwhile, tunes like "Night Vision" and "A Long Drive Back" simmer in introspection and moodiness, perfect for those late-night think sessions.

As the album unfurls, you get hit with waves of nostalgia and existential musings, a testament to Vansire's lyrical prowess. The top-tier production ensures that every instrument and vocal nuance shines without drowning each other out, creating a lush, spacious feel. "The Modern Western World" isn't just a collection of songs—it's a meticulously crafted experience, showcasing Vansire's evolution and maturity. If you're a fan of dream pop and indie rock, this album is a total must-listen. - Tatiana
