Review

X Ambassadors' 'VHS' is a rollercoaster ride through the alt-rock landscape, blending soulful melodies with raw energy. Released in 2015, this debut studio album is a testament to the band's musical dexterity, featuring 20 tracks that seamlessly weave together to create a cohesive narrative experience. The inclusion of interludes like 'Y2K Time Capsule' and 'First Show' adds a unique storytelling element, giving listeners a peek behind the curtain of the band's journey.

At the heart of 'VHS' are the standout singles 'Renegades', 'Unsteady', and 'Low Life'. Each track showcases a different facet of X Ambassadors' sound, from the anthemic and uplifting to the introspective and emotionally charged. The addition of guest artists like Jamie N Commons and Tom Morello brings extra flavor to the mix, complementing the core band members' talents - Sam Harris's powerful vocals, Casey Harris's keyboard wizardry, Adam Levin's driving rhythms, and Noah Feldshuh's guitar work.

This album isn't just a commercial success, having gone Platinum in both the US and Canada, it's also a critical darling that firmly establishes X Ambassadors as a force to be reckoned with in the alt-rock world. From the melodic hooks of 'Gorgeous' to the emotional depth of 'Naked', 'VHS' is a debut that leaves a lasting impression, setting the stage for what promises to be an exciting musical journey for this talented group. - Ellis
