Album Description
Available in:
"What's It Like Over There?" is the third studio album by British indie rock band, Circa Waves. The album was released 5 April 2019 through PIAS Recordings.
User Album Review
Circa Waves are nothing if not versatile. From the summery indie-rock of their 2015 debut Young Chasers to the darker, thunderous nature of 2017’s Different Creatures, this is a band unafraid to switch up their sound if it helps them reach a bigger audience.
They continue this sentiment on their third album, What’s It Like Over There?. Producer Alan Moulder (Foals, The Killers) returns after working with the band – whose members are split between London and Liverpool – on Different Creatures. This time he helps fuse their earlier classic-rock influences with an anthemic pop sound – the result is something slicker and catchier than anything they’ve done before.
Closer “Saviour” is a standout with its nods to Led Zeppelin via dirty, grinding riffs and frontman Kieran Shudall’s menacing delivery. It’s also one of the few explicitly political tracks on the record, as he sings: “Line us up and put us in a hole/ As long as you get where you need to go/ See the rich get rich, the poor get f***ed and sold.” For the most part, Circa Waves prefer to channel youthful disillusionment with an aggressive guitar line (bound to open up one or two moshpits) than any grand lyrical statement. They’re not trying to set the world to rights so much as offer fans an outlet for escapism. It’s refreshing.
