Niall Horan | No Judgement | Single Review

Capitol Records

Rating: Thumbs Up

Niall Horan’s latest release, “No Judgement,” clearly proves the Irish singer’s sound is moving more in the direction of sultry pop on his upcoming sophomore album Heartbreak Weather. The track kicks off with a scorching fingerpicked guitar riff and heavy percussion before Horan comes in with breathy, raspy vocals that detail no longer needing to impress a partner in a relationship. The song maintains a steady progression until it builds into the choruses that make it intoxicatingly danceable while still preserving a passionate airiness that Horan’s vocals bring in contrast to the heavy percussion. “No Judgement” is bound to be a sweltering addition to the radio waves in the upcoming summer months.
