ALBUM REVIEW: Emma Louise - Vs Head Vs Heart

I don't think I've done much else in the last week apart from listen to this album, I didn't even think about a track of the week as I've been so enthralled with this absolute beautiful collection. This has been almost 2 years of anticipation for me. From the moment I first heard Aussie folk/electro/pop singer songwriter Emma Louise's track 'Jungle' I was completely sold and then her EP came out which I was clinically obsessed with and helped define a time in my life where I was really unsure of where I was going and what I was doing, So it comes to me at no surprise that the connection to her music has continued with this album and BOY it is nothing but impeccable from start to finish..

From the first track '17 Hours' to the final track 'To Keep Me Warm' I cannot find 1 single thing that I do not enjoy. It's a very cohesive album and every track flows right through from one to the next in such a beautiful way that I almost can't handle it. Highlights on the album are definitely the lead single 'Boy' - it was such a great continuation of the sound she set on her EP, the rhythmic drums and guitar riff over the chorus really just gets right into your head, my favourite part on the track is definitely the bridge when the drums come back in it just gives me shivers.


'Pontoon' - The way the bass vibrated through my head when the drum is struck, the way she delivers the lyrics as well is amazing, skips along with the beat and makes it sound like an uptempo tracks - Moment I lost it was when I heard all the vocal distortion, it's the perfect accompaniment to this amazing track.



'Freedom' is probably the closest to an uptempo on the album and is a great track too. 'Mirrors' is another favourite, the bubbling electro undertones makes this track soar!

If you are going to buy 1 album this year, make it this one! You will not be disappointed!
