The Rubens feel like they’re finally settled into their groove on this album.

ALBUM REVIEW // ‘Reveries’ – Kingswood
It’s almost fortunate that Covid-19 happened, or else Kingswood might not have ever made ‘Revelries’, making an album that really made me fully appreciate ‘Juveniles’ even more, but also really showcases just how talented this band is.
