Metronomy - Lately

Review by Biểu đồ Giá vàng

Album Review: Lately by Metronomy Alright, so let’s talk about Lately by Metronomy. Released back in 2019, this UK-born gem is a bit of a genre mashup—Pop/Rock, Alternative, Electronic, Synth-pop, you name it. It’s like they threw a bunch of styles into a blender and hit “puree.” And honestly? It kinda works. The album’s got this chill yet quirky vibe that sticks with you, even if you’re not paying full attention. Props to Because Music for putting it out there and Anne Zeum for the artwork—it’s simple but kinda hypnotic, like the music itself. Now, onto the tracks. I’ve been vibing with It’s Only Love and Lately, and lemme tell ya, these two are what make me wanna hit repeat. It’s Only Love hits different. It’s one of those songs where the beat sneaks up on you, and before you know it, you’re nodding your head like, “Oh yeah, this is my jam.” The synths are smooth, almost dreamy, but there’s this undercurrent of energy that keeps it from feeling too floaty. Plus, the lyrics are relatable without being too try-hard—you know, that whole “love is messy but kinda beautiful” thing. It feels personal, like someone just whispered their diary entry into a mic and added some bops. Then there’s Lately (the title track), which is just… wow. It’s slower, moodier, and has this haunting vibe that grabs you by the feels. The production is tight—shoutout to Matt Colton for mastering this baby because it sounds crisp. There’s something about the way the melody builds up and then drops off that makes you wanna sit in the dark and think about life for a sec. Like, whoa, man. What’s wild is how both tracks feel so different but still part of the same universe. One’s upbeat and fun, the other’s more introspective and moody. It’s like Metronomy can’t decide if they wanna be at a house party or staring out a rainy window—and honestly, I’m here for it. So yeah, Lately isn’t perfect. Some songs blend together after a while, and you might zone out during the middle stretch. But overall, it’s one of those albums that creeps up on you when you least expect it. Maybe you’ll hear a snippet in a coffee shop or catch it on shuffle late at night, and suddenly you’re like, “Wait, this slaps!” Random thought to leave you with: If this album were a person, it’d probably wear vintage sneakers, oversized glasses, and smell faintly of lavender incense. Just saying.

About Metronomy

British electronic/alternative band. The brainchild of , Metronomy began ten years ago in the tiny, bohemian market town of Totnes in Devon, UK when his father sold his son a computer so he could sit in his bedroom and make electronic music inspired by the likes of Autechre, LFO, and Aphex Twin, more as a creative hobby than a pop masterplan.

This album came out the year I turned 17 and moved back to America my god do I wish I could go back. It's weird wanting to go back to a time that was awful, i think because it felt hopeful "maybe the future will be better" but it's just gotten harder

C'est fou, complètement fou, quand j'étais petite je croyais vraiment que des artistes miniatures étaient dans mon poste musique, et quand je regarde ce clip, c'est voir exactement ce que j'imaginais à l'image ??
