Review
Miley Cyrus's "Endless Summer Vacation" is a fresh and vibrant adventure through the sounds of pop and dance-pop, revealing Miley's adaptability and evolution as an artist. This eighth studio album is a bit of a shake-up from her previous work, ditching some of the rock vibes for tunes that are a bit more likely to dominate airwaves. Recorded under the sunny skies of Los Angeles, the album feels like a heartfelt ode to the city, reflecting on the personal growth it's spurred in her.
The album cleverly splits into an 'AM' and 'PM' section to capture the different energies of day and night. By day, tracks like the chart-topping "Flowers" bring a burst of energy and infectious beats that are sure to get stuck in your head, possibly forever. By night, the tone shifts to a more intimate and contemplative vibe with songs like "Violet Chemistry" and "Wildcard," diving deep into themes of love and identity. This duality not only showcases Miley's range but also keeps listeners on their toes - or should I say heels, since it's Miley we're talking about? The collaboration with talents like Brandi Carlile and Sia adds even more flavor to this musical feast.
"Endless Summer Vacation" has not only captured the hearts of fans worldwide but also earned nods from critics, solidifying its spot in music charts across the globe and scoring nominations at the Grammy Awards. Whether you've been riding the Miley wave for years or just dipped your toes in, this album is a testament to her continual reinvention and undeniable charisma in the music scene. The only downfall? You might have "Flowers" playing on an endless loop in your head – but there are worse ways to spend your days! - Bianca
