The Bads' fourth album is a captivating blend of indie-rock and alt-country. Dianne Swann and Brett Adams craft compelling songs with expansive production and assured performances. Highlights include the syncopated energy of "Shelter Love," the Bowie-influenced "Planets," and the noir-country torch song "Heartbreak Beach." Nashville's influence shines through tracks like "Spinning Wheels Turning Tides" and "Calling Home." Swann's expressive vocals and Adams' precise guitar work elevate every moment. More upbeat than their 2013 album, "Losing Heroes" is bluesy, dynamic, and thoroughly engaging—an excellent introduction to these accomplished local musicians.
Genre: New Zealand and Alt-Country
