Roman Holliday - Roman Holliday
Review by THE SALEMBA BAND
Roman Holliday's self-titled debut album is a lively and infectious collection of pop songs that perfectly capture the carefree spirit of the 1980s. From the opening track, "Don't Try to Stop It," with its catchy synth riff and sing-along chorus, to the closing ballad, "Stand By," the album is a non-stop party.
The band's signature sound, a blend of ska, pop, and new wave, is showcased in songs like "Motormania" and "Serious Situation," which feature horn-driven melodies and upbeat rhythms. The album also includes the hit single "Don't Let Go," a fun and funky track that has become a quintessential 80s anthem.
Lead singer Steve Lambert's smooth vocals are a perfect match for the band's upbeat and optimistic sound, and the album's production is top-notch, with crisp guitars and bright synths.
