We Free Kings - Love Is In The Air Death Of The Wild Colonial Boy

Review by Soumil Deshpande

We Free Kings' album, "Love Is In The Air Death Of The Wild Colonial Boy," is an eclectic mix of musical genres that explores love, loss, and rebellion. The album is a tribute to the Australian folk hero, Ned Kelly, and his infamous last stand against the authorities.

The album opens with the title track, "Love Is In The Air Death Of The Wild Colonial Boy," a haunting ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song features mournful vocals, acoustic guitar, and a haunting melody that captures the melancholic mood of the album.

The album then transitions to the upbeat and energetic "Kelly's Last Stand," which features a driving rhythm section and catchy guitar riffs. The song is a celebration of Ned Kelly's rebellious spirit and his refusal to be oppressed by the authorities.

Other standout tracks on the album include "The Ballad of Joe Byrne," a poignant tribute to one of Ned Kelly's closest companions, and "The Hanging of Ned Kelly," a powerful song that captures the brutality of the Australian justice system.
