Valuables is a 2016 album, released by Irish pop rock band Enemies, on December 9. With nine tracks – being them itsallwaves, For Karla, Glow, Houran, Play Fire, Bonopi, Leaves, Don't Go and Phoenix Lights – Valuables is a very calm, pleasant, graceful and charming pop rock album. With a serene yet versatile sound, this album certainly qualifies as one of the best records in the genre to be released in the past year.
Although the sonorous style of the album is distinctively uniform, you are never bored. With a strong and deliberate objectivism, that engraves in the melodies a very punctual and celebratory surreal impression, Valuables is beautiful and poetic, and strongly resonate the delicacy of its majestic harmonies in the walls of a delightful and pure artistic freedom.
Impressively matching simplicity with marvelously wonderful, but subtle, rhythmic reverberations, this work silently and quietly conquers your soul, by the sincerity of harmonies stolen from the heart of a galaxy of joy and amazement, despite the melancholic tones that you hear at the corners of some songs, that evaluates even more the beauty of these tracks, without disfiguring or compromising the shape of their style.
A remarkable album, and yet, very simple, the harmonies are full of life and colors. Characterized by a sensorial beauty impregnated at the vivacious pretension of a sincere poetic enlightenment that candidly speaks through the rhythm, in Valuables, you hear a track more beautiful than the other, and all of them combine so amazingly together, that they can be heard and properly understood in both ways: as collectively, as well as individually. An amazing pop rock, very elusive, soft, pleasant and graceful, this is a work that speaks for itself: lucid, solid and realistic, its musical rhetoric is a distinct reverberation of art, that comes and goes in a rush, as the album, being just thirty eight minutes long, can be considered a very brief sonorous painting of ephemeral wonder. Which matches the cover art, as well.
Valuables, after all, reveals itself to be a great, punctual, brilliant, effusive and very diluted work of art. A distinct and compelling work, that shapes pop rock in a more sophisticated and peculiar conjuncture, this album elucidates a very mature perspective on the genre, on a scope which I haven’t seen or heard before. A truly magnificent work, very serene, complete, impressionistic and intensified, Valuables has all the qualities necessary to be considered a reference on the genre.
