Catchy Musical Riffs courtesy of Melbourne based She Was Loud


The She Was Loud EP is 5 tracks of addictive Rock beats, catchy musical riffs and amped up vocals courtesy of Jess Molenaar and Murray Lawson. She Was Loud certainly know how to rock.

She Was Loud EP

My fave tracks from this highly charged EP are All Along The Way and One Night Man as they showcase the band's musical variety.

All Along The Way begins with a gentle melodic intro and a haunting choral vocal but then you're greeted with smooth vocals and slick instrumentals.

One Night Man kicks in with a super charged tempo, which will without a doubt see you headbanging.

Biography
As a rock fan since my early life, when I would spend hours and hours entertaining myself with the Albums of my favourite rock bands, either on the bus home from school or whilst moshing with my friends.

It was then we decided to recreate those glorious memories, whilst also paying tribute to our musical mentors so together with like minded friends She Was Loud was born.

British Indie Music Collective Tess of The Circle


Here is a run down on Tess Of The Circle's latest musical offering Thorns.

Better Days opens with a beautiful instrumental intro, powerful vocals and a crescendoing instrumental

The vocals on Vagabonds and Rogues are a slower pace but it's still a great song especially when the guitar arrangement kicks in.

A well crafted instrumental bed makes cracks and burns a listen for Rock fans.

Eyes of a clown is a somber melody, with its haunting lyrics.

History is a catchy and upbeat tune.

Lifesong features a stirring instrumental combo of piano and violin, also love the influence of Spanish Music.

Say What You Want Run is a beautiful and mellow tune.

No Place Like Home entertains with its catchy intro and its uplifting and inspirational lyrics plus the Guitar Riffs are simply beautiful.

Thorns is a sad song with its slow tempo and moving lyrics.

Mixed Emotions is similar to Thorns but a little more upbeat in terms of the tempo and it features a delightful instrumental sequence halfway through.

Girl In The Window is a beautifully crafted ballad and the Hawaiian style Guitar playing conjures mental images of an exotic beach.

Despite the A List credits on the album, which includes Brit Award Winning Music Producer Chris Potter (who worked with The Verve, Richard Ashcroft and The Rolling Stones), Thorns was prepared independently on a one man label and with an Indie budget.
