Review
Mr.Kitty's album *Time* is a hauntingly beautiful journey through the realms of synth-pop, darkwave, and electronic melancholia. Released in 2014, the record stands as a testament to Forrest Avery Carney’s ability to craft emotionally resonant music that seamlessly blends retro aesthetics with modern production. From the opening track *XIII* to the closing moments of *After Dark*, the album maintains a consistent atmospheric intensity, drenched in lush synth layers and pulsing beats. Songs like *Destroy Me* and *Ruin* showcase Mr.Kitty’s talent for pairing vulnerable lyrics with infectious melodies, evoking a sense of longing and introspection. What sets *Time* apart is its cohesion — each track flows naturally into the next, creating an immersive experience that invites repeated listens. Whether you're drawn in by the emotive vocals or the cinematic soundscapes, *Time* delivers a deeply personal and sonically rich exploration of love, loss, and self-discovery. It's a standout entry in Mr.Kitty’s discography and a must-listen for fans of emotional, synth-driven music.
