Tinlicker Unveils “Cold Enough For Snow” Album: A Review
#tinlicker #vinyl #indiemusic
Dutch electronic duo Tinlicker presents their latest album, “Cold Enough For Snow,” offering a blend of melodic beats and captivating vocals. Featuring guest spots from renowned artists like Placebo’s Brian Molko, Editors’ Tom Smith, and Circa Waves’ Kieran Shudall, the album showcases Tinlicker’s connections within the music industry. However, while the guest appearances add star power, the album’s true highlights emerge when the vocalists take center stage.
Tracks like “Staring Down The Sunset” and “Glasshouse” shine with mesmerizing vocal performances, complemented by Tinlicker’s intricate production. Nathan Nicholson’s layered vocals in “Staring Down The Sunset” create a captivating atmosphere, while Julia Church’s ethereal voice adds depth to “Glasshouse.” However, tracks featuring more recognizable guests like Circa Waves and Placebo fall short, with uninspired lyrics and lackluster melodies.
Despite its star-studded lineup, “Cold Enough For Snow” struggles to deliver memorable moments beyond its guest appearances. Tinlicker’s compositions often feel underdeveloped, lacking the emotional depth needed to resonate with listeners. While tracks like “Revolution” and “In Your Eyes” show promise, they ultimately fall short of leaving a lasting impression.
Overall, “Cold Enough For Snow” offers glimpses of potential but fails to fully capitalize on its star-studded lineup. Tinlicker’s latest album may appeal to fans of electronic dance music, but its lack of substance leaves much to be desired.
