Beach Bunny are back with the perfect summer album; there’s no beach-bumming allowed in this high-tempo, feel-good record.
‘Emotional Creature’ perfectly encapsulates the Chicago-based quartet’s charismatic, cool attitude, pairing it with their contagious energy to create a whirlpool of songs. Singer-songwriter Lili Trifilio invites listeners to dive to new depths, as she documents the human experience and guides us through the difficult waters of vulnerability and self-worth with tracks like ‘Oxygen’, ‘Weeds’ and ‘Gone’, tackling sensitive subject matter with delicacy.
Somehow, nostalgia and futurism co-inhabit, as Y2K-esque pop sounds merge within a galaxy of sci-fi dreams, working together to retreat into Lili’s imagination. It’s an album that manages to escape the real world with the promise of a better one.
