George Bolton, a.k.a. The Screaming Pope has released his latest album “Neon Heights”, a rich and hefty electronica album that will quench your thirst for great electro-music that has a melodic soul and that makes you feel great.
George Bolton started The Screaming Pope in 2020, he makes the music, plays the keyboards and other instruments and does the cover art and music videos too…so he’s the director here and he has the complete artistic vision…that’s why the result is impeccable.
The album has been described by the artist as “It sounds like what must go on in the mind of an Android”…and that would mean that androids have excellent music taste actually!
The Screaming Pope recorded the whole album in a home studio in Boston and all engineering and production was done by The Screaming Pope himself.
“Neon Heights” has 14 diverse, beautiful, expressive and tasteful songs…fusing many styles together…George doesn’t put boundaries to his art…and that makes his art so pure and instantly connects with audiences.
You will experience many styles, moods and genres when you step into “Neon Heights”…from the chill electro-melodic “Movie Star”…to the dreamy “Pedal To The Floor”…and these are just the first two songs on the album!
…but of course, you have the upbeat and electro-fueled track like “Tunneling”, a mix of trance and electro dance that has a sinister melodic undertones…a captivating experience.
…and out of nowhere, The Screaming Pope hits us with “Tall, Dark and Dangerous”…a song that you can’t put a label on…it’s extremely melodic, sounds and feels perfect…it does have a mind blowing bassline and drum beat with some excellent vocal performances.
With that level of diversity, you’re sure to find something that will steal your heart…or even better, the whole album could take you on a journey that will transcend musical genres and win you over like it was inevitable.
