Album Review: This Is Really Going To Hurt by Flyte
Excellent, Based on 2 Critics
Based on rating 8/10
A 10-track supplement to grief, This Is Really Going To Hurt is the second album under Flyte 's (Will Taylor, Nic Hill, Jon Supran) belt, and a manifestation of the dissolution of lead singer Taylor's eight-year long relationship. In taking the form of an introspective melange of heartache, This Is Really Going To Hurt laments on loss and moves away from the anecdotal lyricism of their 2017 debut The Loved Ones. Whilst it won't instantly appeal to the masses, that's not what Flyte are looking for.
Opinion: Very Good
Flyte are quiet advocates of the craft of songwriting. The group's slow-paced, considered approach flies under the radar at times, lacking the fireworks of some of their brash peers, but the subtle poetry in their work is something to be relished. Second album 'This Is Really Going To Hurt' builds on the artistic success of their acclaimed 2017 debut, allowing Flyte to further distill their melodic brew.
