The Delusions

I Hope It Dies on a Sunny Day

My Own Planet

A snappy set of pop tunes, showing a wide variety of influences and styles. Perhaps the Delusions’ guitar craft dates them a little, but if anything the band will make you wonder why solid songwriting and guitars became “retro.” Stellar production from Phil Ek brings out the best in the band, especially in tracks like “Unexplain,” where an ungainly rhythm breaks into a smooth as silk chorus, or “Wrong Channel,” which uses dense riffs and a fast chorus to make its two and a half minutes fly by.
