This is an excellent EP from Dylan Fraser and by far his strongest yet. This EP really displays a linear message and theme throughout and tackles some deep issues. Dylan ponders the meaning of life through the perspective of someone who struggles with there mental health and not seeing a way of escaping their thoughts. Dylan has fascinating ways and strongly visualises how he is feeling in a particular song with key lyrics like ‘I’m in a nightmare but I didn’t fall asleep’ really sticking out to me.
I also really love the sound Dylan has gone with this EP, alternative is the perfect genre for him, and the heavy bass production works excellently with the themes of the songs and a unique experience for the choruses with no vocals. I also like that Dylan tested himself vocally and showed a big range to his voice. On most of the songs he has a deep voice, but some of the songs felt more experimental with his voice going more into his head voice and upper register which I really loved.
My favourite songs ranked:
1. Nightmare
2. Pipeline
3. I’d rather be here
4. Supersonic
5. Mantlepiece
6. Only a fool
7. That’s just life
Overall, Dylan Fraser delivers one of the strongest EPs of the year. With an in depth and linear message and theme throughout, experimenting with his voice and sound. And adding something new to the alternative/pop genre.
Overall score 9.5/10
