    You might call Forever 2024’s ear worm central.

    Indie bands often dream of writing songs that connect with the larger Top 40 world while still maintaining their own musical and emotional integrity, Few do it this well.

    FOREVER sees Charly Bliss firmly planting roots for themselves within the pop sphere with a sense of purpose and playful, joyous intention that even well-seasoned pop bands struggle to do.

    An album that prizes both goofiness and growth, one that takes the long view of emotional vacillation without sacrificing forward momentum.

    Sure, this is the worst Charly Bliss album, but it’s also the most fun I’ve had with music in a while: it’s an innocent, radiant celebration of life’s lovely parts.

    Charly Bliss are once again here to make indie pop fun, aiming to leave you with both tears in your eyes and a grin on your face. They strike that balance like no other.

    The only problem is, that like other Charly Bliss records, it sounds better in little chunks, rather than as a fully-fledged album. There are 12 tracks on Forever, and it’s undeniable that after a while, the songs begin to sound rather the same.
