SINGLE REVIEW: Fakers - No Beaches

'No Beaches' is a sonic force to be reckoned with, exuding raw, authentic energy and a DIY aesthetic that demands attention from the get-go. It's a pulsating, raucous explosion of sound, where each layer adds to the dynamic complexity. Throughout the track, there are subtle nods to prog-rock drone, interwoven with a chaotic melee of noise rock elements that keep listeners enthralled.

One of the standout features of 'No Beaches' is its instrumentation, with a gritty bassline anchoring the frenetic rhythm, complemented by an energetic and razor-sharp drumbeat that drives the momentum forward. The guitars, meanwhile, are rampant and spikey, adding to the intensity of the sonic onslaught, culminating in a cathartic solo outro that leaves a lasting impression.

But it's not just the music that grabs your attention; the vocals play a crucial role in intensifying the experience. They rampage with protesting fervor, their robustness matched only by their untamed delivery. Each lyric is punctuated by hisses of demands for purpose, capturing the essence of modern punk rock at its fiery best.

In essence, 'No Beaches' is more than just a song; it's a compelling driven journey that grabs you by the throat and refuses to let go. From its raw energy to its DIY ethos, this track is a testament to the power of unbridled creativity and unapologetic expression I've come to expect from Fakers.
