On this review I will be reviewing an album which was released this year back in may on the 12th May 2017. It is Harry Styles debut album which is Self-Titled.

Harry Styles is a British pop artist who is successfully known as a member of the boy-band "One Direction". Who ive never really liked them as artists. Since 2015 they've been on hiatus which I think its a good thing I personally dont see them reuniting together for 1D. We are approaching the end of 2017 and we have two members who released their debut albums. Niall and Harry who both released their solo albums. Niall is an example of a flop to "Folk" music Whereas. Harry's album is just spot on. I felt so shocked hearing that Harry has talent. On this album Harry's delivers a calm 70s soft rock and bit of 80s ballads. Before the album was released I heard the preview track on his upcoming project "Sign Of The Times". I felt so shocked hearing that great track I didn't expect Harry to deliver a fantastic track. I actually thought he was going to follow Liam and Zayn footsteps and become pop mainstream. Instead hes more focused in releasing more soft rock music with a bit of indie as well. Since hearing this album I loved how the production changes to calmful ballad soft rock to a bit more indie rock. Despite Im not a big fan of Harry all I can say is that this album is better than Niall's and Zayn's.

Moving on to my favourite tracks which were "Sign Of The Times", "Carolina", "Two Ghosts", "Only Angel", and "Kiwi". Starting off with "Sign Of The Times" this track just simply blew my mind. I was just so shocked that Harry released a fantastic track like this its has bit of an 80s ballad influenced with a bit of soft rock. Just simply fantastic defintley my personal favourite on the album. "Carolina" is another great track with interesting lyrics the production sounds different not to keen on the production but it sounds alright. "Two Ghosts" excellent production with a calmful soft rock tune. "Only Angel" is a fantastic rock track with excellent lyrics. "Kiwi" this track sounds exciting another fantastic rock track which is my second favourite. My least favourite track was the opening track to the album "Meet Me In The Hallway". I personally didnt think the album should have started with this track probably not the best opener for the album but its still an okay track.

Overall the main point of this album was just to be soft rock album not a pop mainstream. I enjoyed this album. I would probably listen to it again. Its a 7/10
