SOHN - Rennen
SOHN - Rennen
SOHN's second album sees him reining in his sound a bit. He took the downbeat electronic soul of his debut and if anything, made it even more downbeat. It's just as earnest and emotional, but it's much more shadowy and sophisticated. To my ears it's an improvement, but some may disagree.
The songs here have a feeling of determination in the face of some emotional adversity. Be it heartbreak, depression, or the indifference of the world, Rennen is about finding the power to go on, to weather the storm. It's a gorgeous and moody record, with songwriting and production that complement each other beautifully.
Like I said, I think it's a real step forward for SOHN. Strongly recommended.
