West 22nd Turn Back the Clock on “Time Machine”

West 22nd have always been good at making nostalgia feel alive instead of dusty. “Time Machine” leans straight into that feeling. The track finds the Austin-based band settling into that sweet spot between breezy indie rock and the emotional pull that has made their songs so easy to scream back from a crowd.

There is something instantly familiar about “Time Machine” without it ever feeling borrowed. The song carries that strange ache of wanting to revisit a moment while knowing it would probably never feel exactly the same twice.

It also keeps the momentum moving after songs like “Virginia Highlands,” “Easy Love,” and “All I Ever Wanted,” giving West 22nd another record that feels built to hit even harder live.
