Deadman - Deadman

Review by Julieta Feroz

The album Deadman by Deadman is a haunting and atmospheric collection of songs that explore themes of loss, mortality, and the darker side of human nature. The band's sound is characterized by their use of sparse, melancholic instrumentation and evocative lyrics that draw on elements of folk, country, and Americana.

Throughout the album, Deadman's lead singer and songwriter Steven Collins delivers his lyrics with a raw, emotive intensity that captures the pain and longing at the heart of the songs. Whether he's singing about the death of a loved one on "When The Music's Not Forgotten" or the search for redemption on "O' City Lights," Collins' voice is a powerful instrument that draws listeners into the world of the songs.

Musically, Deadman's sound is anchored by the interplay between Collins' acoustic guitar and the haunting pedal steel of bandmate Stephen Belans. On tracks like "Little Brother" and "We Can't Be Friends," the two musicians create a sparse, haunting soundscape that perfectly complements the emotional weight of the lyrics.
