VELVET: Side A

Adam Lambert

A sleek pivot toward 1970s funk and soul. Warm analog textures, live instrumentation, and a vocal performance that trades maximalism for grit and groove.

A strutting, soulful confidence tempered by moments of late-night vulnerability.

Moments Worth Listening For
The gritty, distorted bass riff that anchors the opening of Superpower.
The transition into a soaring, vulnerable falsetto during the bridge of Closer to You.
The way the percussion tightens and snaps during the defiant chorus of Ready to Run.
