UH OHS - I Can't Wait/ I Am UnderdogUH OHS – I Can’t Wait/ I Am Underdog

UH OHS are a three piece that formed in Norwich back in 2007 and since that time the band have shared a love of making random music that it full of dirty guitar riffs, punky vocals, and so many different poppy and dance-y moments.

On the 29th June the band are releasing a double A-side digital single which consist of ‘I Can’t Wait’ and ‘I Am Underdog’, the single will only be available to be downloaded from the bands website and there is a limited run of only 500 downloads of the single which means it is pretty much a low key release and considering the UH OHS are already very popular in their own town of Norwich I would imagine 90% of the downloads will come from that area.

‘I Can’t Wait’ is a song that takes a few listens to get into, after the first listen I was left wondering what the hell I was just listening to but after listening to the song a few more times its really grew on me. The song opens with a really bouncy Bass introduction from Naomi, seconds later her in your face squealy punk vocals come in shouting “I Can’t Wait, I Can’t Wait, Until You Come Home”, the bass line runs strong throughout the song and at moments there are some special sounding guitar riffs on offer, the dual vocals from Naomi and Paul work really well especially during the build-up to the explosive repetitive chorus.

‘I Am Underdog’ starts off with a proper rock god set of guitar riffs, with some equally heavy drumming being played by the side of it, Naomi’s vocals come in next sounding more toned down on the previous song but due to some special effects her come at you every now and again in a spooky way, a constant drum beat runs through the majority of the song and the shouty raw vocals from Naomi of “I Am The Underdog” are just epic, which makes me think that the UH OHS must be amazing live.

The UH OHS are a very good band, they are very unpredictable and that’s what I like about them, one minute Naomi sounds nice as pie and then the next she is shouting like a possessed serial killer on a mission, the instrumental work is equally as impressive and unpredictable.

I really like what I have heard here and I really want to hear more from this band sooner rather than later.

4/5
