Introducing: Loa Loa

• 18th May 2016

Having only two singles under their belt, Loa Loa are accomplishing more already than most would in their career.

Currently residing in Brighton it’s clear to see there must be something wild in the water, as Loa Loa effortlessly race between a pure gritty punk bark and huge melodies fit for both punks and indie kids alike.

There are moments where you feel you’ve figured out what Loa Loa are about – opening the record with their most garish effort, you’d be fooled into thinking you’ve got them worked out – then tracks like Landslide and Lily Burning add a new, excitingly melodic and memorable side to their bite.

It would be a fairly safe assumption to say that the band have created something that is not only a brilliant debut release but also an incredibly intimate record. IX.V.V.VI doesn’t feel the need to lean heavily on its lyrical content nor its guitar parts to win anybody over, the overall sensibilities of its punk attitude and singalong chorus’ speaks volumes of how this record is straight up so much more than just an average record.

IX.V.V.VI will be released digitally and physically through Be Pacific Records on Friday 20th May.
