Various - First Demos

Review by Juan Cabrera

The album "First Demos" by Various is a collection of early recordings from various artists. The album features a range of genres including rock, pop, and folk. The tracks are raw and unpolished, giving listeners a glimpse into the early stages of each artist's career.

The album starts off strong with the upbeat and catchy "Can't Get Enough" by The Black Keys. The track showcases the duo's signature blues-rock sound and sets the tone for the rest of the album. Other standout tracks include "The Way I Tend to Be" by Frank Turner, "You Don't Know Me" by Ben Folds, and "Song for Zula" by Phosphorescent.

While the album is not without its flaws, such as inconsistent audio quality and some tracks feeling unfinished, it is a must-listen for fans of the featured artists. It is interesting to hear how each artist has evolved since these early recordings and how their sound has developed over time.

Summary by Juan Cabrera

"First Demos" is a solid collection of early recordings that provides an intimate look into the creative process of some of today's most talented musicians.
