NICKOLOFF – Envy (2024) *HQ*
Released by independent American label Kivel Records, “Envy” is the title of the new NICKOLOFF album – a testament to the enduring power of arena rock with a fresh twist. This isn’t about chasing fleeting trends; it’s a return to the authentic, timeless spirit of classic rock ‘n’ roll.
Hailing from the Sunshine State, Nickoloff brings forth an album that resonates with the nostalgic essence of the genre’s glory days, reinvigorated for contemporary ears. Picture Bon Jovi refusing to conform to the current music landscape and instead crafting the album we’ve always known he’s capable of. That’s the essence of Nickoloff’s sound.
They’re not trying to reinvent the wheel or carve out a new path; they simply want to revel in the joy of creating music that evokes the same excitement and passion as the arena rock anthems of yesteryears. And they’ve succeeded with “Envy”.
The lead single, “Back Where I Belong,” encapsulates this sentiment perfectly, tapping into the collective nostalgia of listeners and transporting them back to the heyday of melodic hard rock. It’s a heartfelt ode that strikes a chord with anyone longing for the electrifying energy and unbridled spirit of that era.
Within the ten tracks of “Envy” Nickoloff invites us to reclaim our place in the realm of arena rock, where passion reigns supreme and the music speaks directly to the soul. With “Envy,” there are no disclaimers needed.
Crank up the volume and let the infectious melodies and powerhouse vocals wash over you, igniting a newfound appreciation for the genre. The heart wants what it wants, and in this case, it’s Nickoloff’s irresistible brand of rock ‘n’ roll.
