New Decadence

Michelle Gurevich

I came across Michelle Gurevich's art totally randomly - got introduced by Spotify's algorithm. Probably one of the best recommendations.

You can easily feel the russian romance in her songs; in its whole beauty. She successfully describes love, tension, sadness - every color of a romance. The fast pace of some songs (e.g. Russian Romance, End of An Era) makes me feel like I'm in a long train trip, in autumn, going through russian suburbs.

If you like to listen and understand lyrics of songs, then this album is for you. Words are not repeated much, and each song has a story to tell. And I love this a lot!

"Le Temps Que Meurt" - 8th song from the album - is a melody only music, and got me so excited when I came across it for the first time. There are butterflies in my stomach eery time I listen it.

The only downside for me is, the album could potentially have more artistic cover image, not just a photo. But I try to not judge the book by its cover. So, it is fine.

4.5 stars. -0.5 is because of the cover :P

This is my first review, and I have recently started listening songs album-by-album fashion. I hope I'll be able to express my feelings about songs better in future.

Thank you for reading <3
