Released digitally today on all platforms, also available on CD and vinyl
via Bandcamp, is the sophomore album "Roses" from Toronto's Aphrose.
We've had three singles from it already in the shape of "Good Love", "YaYa" and the title track "Roses", however, "YaYa" is an extended version for the album.
There are twelve tracks with two interludes and three singles, leaving seven new songs to get familiar with. The first new song "In The Time Of Sorrow", whilst marked explicit, we couldn't detect anything too untoward in the lyrics so radio jocks should not be deterred from programming it as it is one of our choice cuts. It's followed by another cracker "Honey (Don't Come Back". We then get a couple of ballads with "What You Don't See" (which leans towards country) followed by "Weapons".
The more uptempo "Soft Nuclear" explores neo soul territory, with the short and sweet "Higher" also being a mellow and breezy neo soul number. The album closes with an ethereal ballad titled "ZAG".
All in all it's a solid set of contemporary music with our choice cuts from the new material being "In The Time Of Sorrow" and "Honey (Don't Come Back".
