Sylver specializes in a hot-blooded brand of R&B, where every emotion and interlude matters. Benefiting from good sound production, the lead singer delivers a solid, nasally vocal brushed with a bit of a European accent. “Witness” is a soulful and heartfelt pledge of love (“I give you the key to my heart”). “LOML” expresses the wrenching regret of a career-driven man who now wants desperately to correct his prior mistake. (“If only I’d stayed with you!”) On the dark, edgy “Nightmare,” a melodramatic synth underscores the singer’s suicidal depression. (“Voices in my head. I’m done”) Sylver’s singer, though just as depressed as The Weeknd, must find a way to be equally as sexy.
