Ivy League’s “American Love” is a moving journey through pain, healing, and transformation. The album, which took a decade to create, combines raw emotion with a reflective tone, reflecting the weight of past traumas and the beauty of putting life back together. When you start listening to the album you will find yourself listening track by track without stopping.
The record is inspired by the Japanese art of kintsugi, repairing broken pottery with gold, and does not focus on what shattered but rather on the strength in mending. I really appreciate how this release turns scars into something sacred, which makes it stand out in its authenticity. Each track has a sense of purpose, which encourages the listeners to think about their paths of growth. Ivy League’s storytelling is brilliant, giving hope without denying life’s messiness. I recommend listening to the artist’s previous release as well.
This album is a reminder that broken doesn’t mean worthless, it means valuable. “American Love” is a treat for those who enjoy music that touches the soul. Want to hear more? Follow the artist on Instagram.
