(2022) For Tracy Hyde - Hotel Insomnia
Review:
Hotel Insomnia is the fifth album from the Tokyo dream pop band, following last year’s Ethernity. With Mark Gardener of Ride mastering the entire album, swirling guitar textures and feedback laden rock are sure to be front and center. But leave it to the pop sensibilities of For Tracy Hyde to combine shoegaze tones with catchy hooks and melodies sung by lead vocalist eureka to create a sound quite unlike anything else. The 13-track collection marks a return to the reverb-laden sound of their releases until 2019, its material striking a balance between ’60s girl group-influenced sweetness and distorted, swirling atmospherics. Hotel Insomnia is the band’s first release following the departure of longtime member U-1, who left the group in February. The group’s remaining members are vocalist eureka, guitarist natsubot, bassist Mav and drummer Soukou. The band made their debut in 2014, with their EP ‘Born to Be Breathtaken’. Their debut full-length effort ‘Film Bleu’ was released in 2016, which was shortly followed by their sophomore album ‘he(r)art’ in 2017. Their 2019 album ‘New Young City’ was followed by their America-influenced, emo- and grunge-indebted concept album ‘Ethernity’ in 2021. — nme.com
