1D fans, Niall Horan has finally delivered an album that’ll grip its listeners as an instant success. It was released through Capitol Records on 13 March 2020. It includes the singles “Nice to Meet Ya”, “Put a Little Love on Me”, “No Judgement” and “Heartbreak Weather”.
The new sophomore studio LP follows ‘Flicker’ which released as the 26-year-old Irish heartthrob’s debut in his solo career. Since his One Direction departure though Horan has really failed to shine, until now. “Heartbreak Weather” is sure to hit your heart with its carefully arranged compositions and productions, blanketed beneath impeccable vocals, and stories written straight from the world of the ever talented Horan. It made me want to take a moment to appreciate this craft that reveals how truly talented Niall Horan actually is.
‘Heartbreak Weather’ stands out as a perfect mix of pop, pop rock and soul, it’s a well-rounded ratio of warm, sultry, melancholic and energetic songs. It is clear Horan is a passionate singer. Although mostly aligned as romantic songs for women, Horan’s relatable emotions and lyrics show that male listeners may find solace in them as well.
