Shallow Hits
The scope, variety and ambition of Ebbbās debut album Shallow Hits is clear from the off. āCome Aliveā whirs into being quietly before morphing into a sun-kissed, radiant piece of calypso-esque electronic pop; the Latin-flavoured āNow You Knowā feels destined to soundtrack sun-drenched festivals this summer;Ā Shallow HitsĀ is as deft and detailed as it is big, bold and euphoric; while the wonky yet propulsive charge of āSide Onā sounds like a drum ānā bass club and church choir combined.
A fervent eclecticism and unpredictable restlessness underpins the album. Latterly the record dives into the moody technoid textures and multi-layered harmonies that characterised their debut EP All At Once - exemplified by āYouthā and the closing track āIām Not Enoughā that lands an emotional gut punch to an album that is already littered with them. However thereās a remarkable coherence and identity that underpins the album. Ebbb are exploring far and wide, deep and vast, yet they do so via an approach that remains unmistakably them.
Shallow Hits is an album bursting with ideas, textures, rhythms, detail and emotion. A bold and singular debut record from a group who truly do not sound like anyone else right now.
