Review

The Wanton Bishops light a fire under conventional rock with their album "Sleep With the Lights On." Nader Mansour leads the charge, fusing blues, psychedelic rock, and classic riffs with undeniable swagger. The band's Lebanese roots shine through, giving the album a pulse that's both global and unmistakably Beirut. Tracks like "Come to Me" and "Bad Rhyme" deliver blistering energy, while "My Kinda Lovin'" and "Whoopy" reveal a love for upbeat, danceable grooves.

What really sets this album apart is how fearlessly it plays with genre and influence. Mansour’s powerhouse vocals pair perfectly with Eddy Ghosein’s guitar and a top-notch rhythm section, creating an electrifying sound. Their dedication to Lisa Harawi, along with contributions from talented collaborators, gives "Sleep With the Lights On" real heart. It’s a wild, original ride—definitely worth a spin if you’re up for something refreshing and unpredictable. - Karl
