Megalo - Ontic Blues

Review by Budditha Fernando

Ontic Blues, the latest album by Megalo, is a masterpiece of modern blues. The band's unique blend of blues, rock, and jazz creates a sound that is both fresh and familiar. The album is a journey through the ups and downs of life, with songs that range from upbeat and optimistic to introspective and melancholic.

The album's opening track, "Gotta Get Up," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its infectious groove and catchy lyrics. The band's tight rhythm section and soulful guitar work are on full display in this track and throughout the rest of the album.

Other standout tracks include "Lost in the Shuffle," a slow-burning blues number that showcases lead singer Meg's powerful vocals, and "Blues for the Modern Age," a social commentary on the state of the world today.

Summary by Budditha Fernando

Ontic Blues is a must-listen for any fan of modern blues. Megalo's unique sound and thoughtful lyrics make this album a standout in a crowded genre.
