The Loud Ones


The Loud Ones are a group of four guys with very sore knees. Let me explain, The Loud Ones is a band that lives, breathes, eats, and shits skatecore. They formed in 1983, meaning they've been shredding, playing parties, and devouring beer for thirty one years. All that action has to take a wear on the body. 

Not that you would ever know it, because the band is back and they're harder than ever, finally releasing a full length. Being mangy, feral skaterats, the guys only recorded one demo in the entirety of their existence before going back to shredding gnar and raw-dogging chicks in fast-food handicapped stalls. This is their much-needed statement of intent and it's a strong one. Think thirty years of skateboarding and hardcore distilled into one record and you're on the right track. This thing is catchy, fun, and surprisingly well produced. The mix is great and the vocals are powerful. 

If you're going into this expecting anything other than a punk blast of fun then you're in the wrong place. This album can best be summed up by the title of one of its best tracks. "Skateboarding, Chicks, 'n Rock n Roll."
Ya dig?
