This week I discovered Starsailor for the first time. Based on their age and Spotify numbers, they’re not exactly a hidden gem. But it seems like they never quite broke through to the mainstream either. I had just never heard of them before.
Specifically, their debut album Love Is Here. I’ve listened to it so much this week. It’s such a great record, filled with great songs. Their music is raw, punchy, expressive, emotional. There’s so much going on in the arrangements, and structure, and lyrics.
I don’t want to go deep into an analysis, or into how some of their songs remind me of Mando Diao’s Give Me Fire, another fantastic album. This post is just a recommendation. Give them a listen. Maybe you, or someone else reading these lines, will be discovering them for the first time as well, and their music will touch you just as much.
