When
Madison Beer dropped ‘
Home To Another One’ earlier this year, it signaled a deeper dive into some perhaps unexpected influences. Built around a Tame Impala-lite wonky bassline and embellished with twinkly keys and Madison’s airy vocals, it immediately put her in her own lane.
A refreshing update on the lovelorn pop she was making on debut ‘
Life Support’, follow up ‘
Silence Between Songs’ sees Madison Beer fully indulge in her left of centre favourites. Opener ‘
Spinnin’ has elements of soft psychedelic 70s rock that work perfectly with her lush harmonies, ‘
Envy The Leaves’ follows suit, this time with an obscure lyrical theme that compares naivety to nature.
In a way similar to Lorde’s ‘Solar Power’, these earthly references pop up time and time again, ‘17’ seeing Madison look back on her fast-paced teen years and desire to take it easy now she’s in her mid twenties, then again in ‘
I Wonder’ where she shakes off a rough patch and sees the world for the first time again.
