Lovvers - Think (Wichita Recordings)
January 8, 2009 – 4:13 pm
After reviewing Lovvers excellent ‘Laughing Man’ single on the old Indie-MP3 site back in February 2008 and stating it would be worth keeping your ears open for them last year, it’s really inexcusable that I managed to miss the release of this 7 song CD/EP on Wichita Recordings back in September of last year.
I’ve made up for the error now and although now signed to Wichita Recordings the band have maintained their raw edged rock n roll noise fuelled sound - but whilst creeping away from their roots ever so slightly. The band have still managed to deliver a 7 song EP that, at just over 12 minutes in length, is as concise a burst of fearsome guitar noise as you are likely to hear. Gigantic riffs are the order of the day and they don’t come much bigger than the crunchy swagger of ‘No Romantics’. Elsewhere the rockabilly punk of ‘No Fun’ is all frantic drums and incessant guitar hooks. Adding to the big bad guitars are some damn fine tunes and a rhythm section that seemingly bullies the band into one cohesive unit. Lovvers are great and the ‘Think’ EP is the sound of band starting to really believe in themselves.
