My last album from 2011! It has been an eventful, exciting year, but I’m ready for the new music 2012 will bring. I’m a complete sucker for beautiful male voices. Don’t ask why, but if a guy has stunning vocals, I don’t give a fig what the rest of the band or the lyrics sound like. Every Kingdom is the first studio album from British artist Ben Howard. I heard “The Wolves’” first, and I knew I had struck gold. My favorite part of the song starts at around 2 minutes; Howard gets really into the music and you can truly feel his passion. (For me, that usually makes for a great song). The other track below, “Only Love,” is beautiful, musically impressive, and so frickin’ catchy. A total package.
But…Sucks to be an American. As of today, Howard is scheduled for a number of shows, all in Europe. Unless he changes travel plans, we’ll have to be satisfied with Digital Ben. Luckily, Every Kingdom is truly the perfect start to a new year of music.
