Review

'Unreal Unearth: Unaired' by Hozier is a rich tapestry of sound that expands on his 2023 release 'Unreal Unearth'. This collection isn't just a bunch of B-sides, but a cohesive addition to Hozier's musical narrative. The opening track 'Nobody's Soldier' is a real stunner, showcasing Hozier's vocal chops and his knack for socially conscious lyrics. It's got this energetic, uplifting vibe that's totally in line with his live shows.

The album then shifts gears with tracks like 'July' and 'That You Are', diving into Hozier's signature dreamy, blues-pop sound. 'July' might remind you of 'Wildflower and Barley' from his 'Unearthed' EP, especially in the chorus. And 'That You Are' features some gorgeous harmonies with Syrian American musician Bedouine. Throughout the album, Hozier's lyrics are as sharp and raw as ever, hitting you right in the feels.

What's cool about 'Unaired' is how it shows off Hozier's range as an artist. You've got everything from the fiery passion of 'Nobody's Soldier' to more introspective, melancholic tunes. It's like Hozier's saying, "Hey, I've got more where that came from," and boy, does he deliver. This album is a real treat for fans who can't get enough of his soulful, blues-infused sound. - Ellis
