On this review I will be reviewing the new album from the duo 'Let's Eat Grandma'. released on the 29th June 2018. It's the second album from 'Lets Eat Grandma' called "I'm All Ears".
Let's Eat Grandma are a British duo formed back in 2013 by childhood friends 'Rosa Walton', and 'Jenny Hollingworth'. They are an Art Pop duo from Norwich. They were both raised in Norwich. They first met in reception back in primary school. They met when they were 4 years old. They began making music when they were 13. Making music was like a playtime activity for them. Implying that they spent their time during their break making music. They became members of the local Norwich music scene before they caught their attention of another musician 'Kiran Leonard' who helped them to pass their music to their manager who later became their future manager. Discussing about their discography they have released two albums. Their debut album "I Gemini" which is a decent album even though I just discovered them recently. An interesting debut album with Art Pop, Avant Pop, and Experimental Pop together. "Deep Six Textbook" which is one of the tracks from their debut album. It was one of the tracks that they wrote when they were young. Another track is "Eat Shiitake Mushrooms" which is another one of their tracks that they wrote at the time when they were young. Two good tracks I reckon it's a decent debut album. Which brings us now to their new album "I'm All Ears". After hearing this album what did I think of it? I thought this album was great it was a fantastic album I liked this album. It's definitely one of the best albums of 2018. I would not be surprise if this album was nominated for the Mercury Prize which hopefully it will be nominated. It's a great album I enjoyed it. I prefer their new album to their debut.
Moving on to my favourite tracks on the album starting with "Hot Pink" which is produced by 'Sophie' famously known for her bubble gum pop production. It's a good track fantastic production from Sophie. Great lyrics. "It's Not Just Me" their vocals really do blend well together. Production is great. "Snakes & Ladders" it's this art pop which I thought was interesting I liked it. "I Will Be Waiting" I like the guitar riffs on this track it's a chillout track I love the sparkling part at the end of track. "Ava" my number 1 favourite on the album. Amazing track very beautiful. Very beautiful piano melody their vocals are really beautiful on this track. "Donnie Darko" it's an instrumental and vocal track interesting track even though it's long but I love how it changes in the middle of the track. My least favourite track "The Cat's Pyjamas" which was a short track about a cat very weird but interesting instrumental on the track.
Overall I enjoyed this album. I liked it. Very beautiful album. I would listen to it again. I am giving this album an 8/10.
