Vamala by Champs
Review By: Jasmine Francois
Rated: 7.5/10
A light-hearted but energetic album. After listening through once, I felt a familiar comfort with the songs as if I’d been listening to them for years (in a good way). Each song is unique and memorable, creating a nice up/down flow throughout the album. The album progresses from a simple soft rock, singer/songwriter feel to a more complex, almost dream-pop-like mixture, sometimes an uppity 60s rock sound with a modern twist. Overall, an entertaining and interesting album. I have already recommended it to a friend.
