Lovejoy - One Simple Trick (2025) [Hi-Res]

In their debut album "One Simple Trick," the British indie rock band Lovejoy, led by William Gold (Wilbur Soot), delivers a mature and confident work. The record combines theatrical drama, catchy choruses, and an energy reminiscent of the "indie sleaze" era of bands like Arctic Monkeys and Milburn, with influences from Suede and Editors. The reviewer notes the masterful use of crescendos and the emotional delivery of lyrics on themes of youth and rebirth. Despite being a debut, the album's long incubation period makes it sound like the work of a fully formed band at the peak of their abilities, marking it as a striking and highly successful start.
