The New Loud

Clouds of steam normally emanate from my ears when I hear from… yet… another… US Indie band, they invariably sound like a bad copy of a poor band. The New Loud however quickly extinguished the steam as they generate something of genuine interest. For sure there are overtones of the band I can’t bear to type today, but they are far more than a copy. The trio cleverly utilize the vocal strengths of the artists and combine with this a some creative instrumentation.

Relying on the electronics to lift them above the mundane, The New Loud achieve this with ease, as they take the listener across a plethora of syncopation. They play with comfort faster rock driven tracks and are equally at home with a slower euro-beats. Making superb use of the vocal interplay the ears are continually challenged to keep-up.

The longevity of the out-fit has enabled them to create a degree of confidence, which has led them to explore a wider space than might typically be expected and far more importantly they do it with flair. I much prefer when they head off to their own ground as this is where their real power lies.
