Beirut's Zach Condon Finds His Farfisa Again
17 Sep
Summary
- Zach Condon reunited with his old Farfisa organ for the album.
- Gallipoli offers warm, '70s-influenced indie pop.
- The album's atmospheric tracks are its strongest elements.

Beirut's latest offering, Gallipoli, marks Zach Condon's return with his fifth album, prominently featuring his rediscovered Farfisa organ.
This album continues Condon's signature style of creating spacious, indie pop reminiscent of '70s aesthetics and Laurel Canyon folk. The warm, FM-radio glow of the 12 tracks evokes a sense of nostalgic introspection.
While lyrically Condon's work on Gallipoli may be inconsequential, its textural richness and atmospheric tracks, like the Balearic-tinged "Corfu," stand out. The album's soundscape, particularly the use of vintage drum machines and orchestral arrangements, offers a unique listening journey.
