Nixon Tyme reveals his highly effective new album, “How We Love The Sea”

Hailing from Rennes in France is Nixon Tyme, and earlier on this month noticed the singer-songwriter reveal his highly effective new album, “How We Love The Sea”. The artist is not on Spotify so it’s possible you’ll really feel extra hooked up to this than others, as once we listened to this on the primary play there was this large clean canvas for our ears to fall upon.

The entire album is an idea and showcases Nixon’s vocal vary, with tones sounding ever-so acquainted to the likes of David Bowie and artists of the late Nineteen Eighties alt-rock scene. “How We Love The Sea” kicks open with the moody tune “Drit and Mud” earlier than swiftly heading into the ballad-sounding “Inside These Partitions” – and it is this observe that I felt like I used to be listening to an acoustic Bowie album, because the resemblance within the vocals are so rattling related.

The observe “La Passerelle” acts as an interlude supplying you with a little bit of a relaxation earlier than the heart-on-your-sleeve observe “Ready for You” is available in, and with the observe feeling very tender you’ll be able to’t assist however get sucked into it with the sheer majesty of all of it.

“The Lady And not using a Clue” options some candy feminine vocals on, kicking up the album a bit with a extra upbeat sounding sheen, and with this piece sounding extra like Squeeze in locations it seems like Nixon Tyme may be probably the most underrated acts in France!

For me the ultimate 5 tracks are propped up with the cinematic “She Shakes the Sand” main into the toe-tapping “My Oh My” and the cigarette-lighter tune “Single Handed Crossing”. The album finishes on two sturdy tracks with “Shining Star” giving the listener a experience with the sluggish opening earlier than a cascading alt-indie sound with strings is available in, and the ultimate observe “The Day that Zorba Died” supplying you with that final gasp ballad with tender feminine/male vocals.
