EP REVIEW: LoudFoxCult - Cult Classics
Michigan's LoudFoxCult present their highly anticipated "Cult Classics" EP. The record represents a step-up in quality and a more polished, produced sound compared to their previous DIY offerings.
The EP boasts confident, nonchalant, surf infused vibes with catchy hooks and sparkling guitars at every turn.
Laid back vocals channel themes of angst, self loathing and confusion wrapped in an up-tempo, get up and dance stance. Epic riffs often show hints of proggy experimentation.
Standout tracks are EP opener 'Losing Focus' with its confident sound and high octane, glittering guitars and closing track 'U Wonder' which infuses classic jangly indie with the eerie distortion of grunge.
The whole EP is dynamic, mixing indie with garage rock, pop punk and elements of progression. The overall sound is infectious with a nice balance of pristine production and fuzz to give an immaculate, addictive noise.
