The bands name sounds like they have been busy making
some kind of gonzo porn film or something else in
their bedroom, maybe they have who knows, anyway
the band are a 5 piece from Plymouth and they have
been together for 3 years now and by the looks of
it the band aren’t shy when it comes to music
as each and every member of the band have been in
previous bands such as No Comply, Orca, Dr Gruff
and many many more, the only one of the bands that
I have come across before is No Comply and I was
hugely impressed with their sound and was quite
sad when they split up.
I really love The Bedroom Project and the way
that they have mixed a variety of different musical
styles together to come up with their sound and
their sound is big loud and quite rocking, seriously
go out and buy a copy of their second album 'The
World Is No Watching' put the cd in your cd player
and press play and try tell me that the first
20 seconds of the cd doesn’t do anything
for you.
The first song 'Lighting A Match' is great, it’s
massive sounding, the guitar riffs and drumming
that open the song are so thunderous, the noise
that this band make is so pleasing to my ears
and I seriously can’t get enough of the
first track from the album, whilst sounding big
and loud the band also manage to hold a lot of
melody within the song, the guitar riffs within
this song are totally guitar hero friendly, if
I didn’t know better I would of thought
that they were written for the game, they are
huge and so pleasing and could just imagine rocking
out in my room strumming along to this on guitar
hero, if only the game let you upload your own
cds.
'Lighting A Match' finishes and 'The Story Of
Lex Mcklane' starts up with out you even noticing
the change of tracks, I still thought I was listening
to the first track but my cd player was telling
me that track 2 was on, the change over from songs
was so quick that I totally didn’t notice,
'The Story Of Lex Mcklane' is just as accessible
as the opening track but just a little bit lighter
in sound.
If The Bedroom Projects mission as a band is
to make as much noise as possible and make it
as enjoyable as possible then I think they have
succeeded, as everything about their sound is
strong and loud sounding and so enjoyable. For
example listen to 'There Is No Shelter' there
is so much going on in the song, the guitar riffs
in places sound like John Frusciante from the
Red Hot Chilli Peppers has headed around to The
Bedroom Project to knock out a few riffs. 'Everything
You Need' is quite a chilled out song, what I
mean by chilled out is that it’s more chilled
out than the most of the album, the drumming is
still big and constant, the bass lines are bouncier
than a small elastic band ball, the guitar riffs
shed a lot of noise and frontman T.J Ward's raw
rap style rock vocals sit just perfectly with
everything that’s going on.
The Bedroom Project are a fun energetic band,
they have captured so much noise and energy on
their second album 'The World Is Not Watching',
the album is so powerful but I feel that I am
still missing out on something, I feel that The
Bedroom Project would be best captured live as
if they can create this much energy on cd, it
excites me to think just how enjoyable and energetic
these guys are when they play live, this is something
that I will have to find out for myself soon.
4/5
