EP Review
Blast Stereos Loud - BurnBlast Stereos Loud - Burn

Blast Stereos Loud are a band who started off well back in 2001 but it was a long time coming until the bands final line-up was completed in 2005, since then the band have been touring as much as possible clocking up an impressive fan base whilst sharing the stage with the likes of The Blackout, Kids In Glass Houses and Useless ID. By looking at the bands Blast Stereos Loud have toured with you would expect their music to be quite melodic which it is but it also has a crunching post-hardcore sound with some extremely tight and hard hitting guitar work.

The band have finally got around to putting their debut EP together, it’s a 4 track EP called 'Burn' and it’s not bad at all. The EP starts off with the title track 'Burn' which is full of choppy guitar work and the drumming stands out a lot as well, the vocals are quite aggressive sounding with some shouty backing vocals. 'Long Time Dead' is more of an upbeat melodic sounding song with catchy hooks and a more upbeat sing a long chorus. 'A Hollywood Ending' is a pretty average song that offers nothing new but by no means is it a bad song.

The EP closes with ''Leave Tonight Behind', the song features some great guitar riffs and stand out catchy vocals that are really in your face finishing the EP well.

The sound Blast Stereos Loud have is nothing new and reminds me of early Funeral For A Freind and The Blackout in places which is a good way to start and if Blast Stereos Loud continue to progress their sound they could be in the music scene for some time.

3/5
