After releasing their latest album, Fly Away at the start of the year, All Angels return with a 5 track EP, titled Starlight.
True Colours (originally by Cyndi Lauper) opens the EP and features the girls and guitar only, although come the second verse, they go a capella and then back to having the guitar accompaniment. Goodnight My Angel is a completely a capella track, showcasing the girls abilities beautifully.
Title track Starlight (originally by Muse) has a slight latino feels with the guitar and you can help but start sway your hips to. Adiemus works beautifully with all the girls voices working together with a little help with a drum and guitar. Finally, Infant Holy/Ding Dong is another little a capella and wonderful of joining up of two Christmas songs
Overall, the EP showcases the girls vocals beautifully, with instrumentation kept to a minimum (in this instance it is only guitar and sometimes drums) so that the vocals are not drowned out. Of course, the instrumentation also compliments the vocals, as it should. This is highly recommended if you are a fan of the girls or even just dipping into their music.
Rating: 5/5
