Review

River Whyless's 2018 offering, 'Kindness, A Rebel', is a musical journey that'll have you tapping your feet one moment and lost in thought the next. This 11-track wonder is like a warm hug for your ears, blending catchy melodies with lyrics that'll make you pause and ponder.

The band's growth is evident in every note, as they weave a tapestry of sound that's both familiar and fresh. They're not afraid to get a little political, but they do it in a way that feels more like a heart-to-heart chat than a lecture. It's like they're saying, "Hey, the world's a bit messy, but we're all in this together."

What really grabs me about 'Kindness, A Rebel' is how River Whyless manages to pack so much into each song without it feeling overwhelming. The arrangements are intricate, the vocals are soulful, and there's a sense of passion that just leaps out of the speakers. It's the kind of album that reveals something new with each listen, like a gift that keeps on giving. I can almost picture a sketch of a river flowing through a chaotic cityscape, symbolizing the kindness and rebellion intertwined in this beautiful musical creation. - Brynn
