Music Review: Texas ‘The Conversation’

Texas is back with The Conversation

Texas EP The Conversation is an emotion filled album.

Harking back to Texas of old compiled with twangs of country, 50s pop and soothing soul.

Their eighth album is awash with rich melodies and raw emotion.

From the get go with the title track The Conversation grabs you by the collar and pulls you in straight away carrying the swagger that Spiteri has always had in spades.

Dry Your Eyes is a crooning love song filled with lush country overtones. If This Isn’t Real rolls along at a soothing pace filtered with Spiteri’s soft lilt.

Maybe I with husky vocals aplenty beckons you to come closer, closer still to the speakers.  Track 5, I Will Always has more than a touch of KD Lang styling to it.

The anthem track of the album, Detroit, and Hearts Are Made To Stray takes us back to classic Texas with a infectious build up into an explosive chorus full with that unmistakable Texas sound.

Fans of the band will be delighted  with The Conversation and those just discovering the Glaswegian outfit will not be disappointed at their new find.
