Review

Holden Laurence's "Wild Empty Promises," released in 2017, is a hauntingly beautiful and introspective album that wades through themes of love, loss, and self-discovery. The whole package has a cinematic feel, offering a bittersweet tone that's dripping with post-punk and new wave vibes.

The lyrics dive deep, exploring the fragility of relationships and the quest for self-understanding with poetic precision. Tracks like "Cover Me in Roses" and "Maybe, I Know Why" really stand out, showcasing Laurence's knack for creating songs that are both catchy and emotionally charged. The polished production, with its attention to detail, serves to enhance the overall experience. All in all, "Wild Empty Promises" is a testament to Holden Laurence's prowess as a songwriter and his unique ability to touch on deeply personal yet universally relatable themes. - Ethan
