Greedy is Jenny Rubicon’s debut album. The duo releases an encouraging alternative rock album filled with diverse inspirations. Review.
GREEDY – JENNY RUBICON
It’s with the same idea that Greedy, an efficient pop-punk ballad, shines optimistically, although I admit I would have liked the backing vocals to push their energy further here. Monte Carlo brings a dash of sunshine with round guitars, and Belgrade creates a contrasting shade with a drier attitude. There are some nice raw trials. The band slides to a classic-rock with the catchy Easy Love, and on blues with Sparrow, bringing more depth to its bass lines.
For Zodiac Killer, it’s a thriller, and the rhythm almost turns metal. Again, I would have liked for the vocals to be louder and give a sharper attack, mirroring the guitars. For me, Breakfast With Chloe is the most accomplished track with its vintage colourful softness. It’s followed by the pop-punk riffs of Webdings and its upbeat mood and rhythm are completed by intriguing lines. Overall, if I had liked for them to be more confident and louder in their singing, Jenny Rubicon still gave away something precious: their passion. It’s an encouraging debut.
