Boy Grapes has a way of pulling you into his world and his new album “When I Close My Eyes” is a great example of that. Each song here has its own personality, shifting between heavy moments and softer ones. The instrumentation is rich and varied and you’ll hear everything from hypnotic acoustic passages to explosive bursts of energy and somehow it all fits together. His vocals carry that raw edge that makes the lyrics land in a real way, never over-polished, just honest and deep.
What really struck me is how the record flows. It’s not just a collection of songs but it feels like chapters in a story, weaving through themes of struggle, reflection and resilience. There are catchy hooks that stay with you, but also deeper moments that hit hard when you least expect it. Honestly, I believe this might be Boy Grapes’ most powerful album yet. I couldn’t stop listening and can’t wait to see where his career will go over the coming years!
