Christopher Bailey - This is How We Die

Review by Ingrid Peixoto Arruda

Christopher Bailey's album, This is How We Die, is a hauntingly beautiful collection of songs that showcase his incredible talent as a musician and songwriter. From the opening track, "The End of the World," to the final notes of "The Long Goodbye," Bailey takes listeners on an emotional journey through life, death, and everything in between.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Broken," a poignant ballad that showcases Bailey's raw, emotional vocals and his ability to craft lyrics that are both heartbreaking and inspiring. Another standout track is "Into the Fire," a powerful anthem that encourages listeners to take risks and pursue their dreams, no matter what obstacles they may face.

Throughout the album, Bailey's musical influences are on full display, from the haunting melodies of Nick Cave to the driving rhythms of Bruce Springsteen. But despite these influences, This is How We Die is a wholly original work that stands on its own as a testament to Bailey's talent and vision.
