Caustic Love
Paolo Nutini
The artist departed from his acoustic beginnings to adopt a late-night soul style that feels both vintage and urgent. A center point is Iron Sky, which uses a spoken-word sample to anchor the emotional intensity of the record.
Production leans into thick, analog sounds and funk-inspired rhythms. It evokes a smoky, nocturnal atmosphere where brass arrangements and bluesy guitar riffs collide with modern R&B sensibilities.
