Already on their third album, Bombay Bicycle Club have long reigned as one of the most-loved ‘indie-folk’ bands in today’s music scene. With their simplistic but powerful melodies combined with lead singer Jack Steadman’s vocals, they’ve found a recipe for successful, and an army of bloody good songs.
How Can You Swallow So Much Sleep fails to slip from their line of success, starting with soft, harmonious vocals, building piece-by-piece, instrument-by-instrument, into the mix we’ve come to know and love. The track continues to build as it continues, turning the seemingly steady and simplistic melodies into a more complicated but intriguing sound that can’t help but draw you in. Add repetitive- in all the right ways- vocals, and the track becomes a tranquil but exciting piece that makes you stop and listen, right from the opening seconds until a simple and charming end.
The perfect track to calm you when you’re stressed, and a perfect track to bring in the summer months. Bombay Bicycle Club maintain their reign at the top.
4/5
