Lior Golan’s EP MIDNIGHT TRAINS hits with real heart and pure rock grit. The five-track project delivers a heavy, organic groove that feels completely alive from the very first beat and you can tell the rhythm section recorded together in the same room because the drums and bass lock into a tight, driving cadence that carries every track forward.
The opening tunes establish a rich, multi-layered feel where warm Hammond organ tones and retro synth lines weave around gritty guitar riffs and Lior’s vocals sit front and center, carrying a raw, personal edge that gives the lyrics meaning, “YOU TRIED YOUR BEST” stands out with a solid melodic hook and guitar work that keeps building.
Even the album cover art is amazing, a glowing steam train chugging past a giant moon in a dark forest makes you feel the music before you even press play. Every guitar solo feels earned, and the arrangement choices let every instrument breathe while keeping the overall energy high.
It is rare to find indie rock this passionate, direct, and unpolished in the best way possible. Golan and his long-time guitarist Gabriel Lefelman put everything into these songs, and that total honesty shines through every single note.
