One thing False Heads are excellent at doing is grabbing the listener by the throat within seconds of songs starting. Their latest addition Slease is no exception. An immediately gripping, fuzzy bassline gives a few seconds to prepare for the hit of the rest of the band joining in to create a real powerhouse of a track.
Despite only being a three piece, this band is capable of making an unbelievable amount of noise and packing in high amounts of energy in such a short space of time. So therefore, it is unsurprising that they have received as much praise and recognition as they have as there is some serious talent here.
The harmonic choruses, catchy call and responses and lyrical repetition are skills that this band have mastered throughout their discography and Slease will be a fantastic addition to an already strong line up of songs.
One thing that can’t be stressed enough in modern music is having an original sound and everything these boys release captures that hard to grasp fresh and individual feel. This band really brings another sense to the meaning of the word individuality and the southern accents in the vocals really do make a difference, making it feel more organic and gritty. Plus being a punk band, it is evident that there is influence from the genre of times past and this is fantastically intertwined to give that unique sound even more of a kick.
The entire sound of this track is just high-octane. Loud and furious guitars, brilliantly heavy drums and thunderous basslines tying everything up into an amalgamation of anger, noise and power.
The future is looking bright for this band and their live performances should be quite the sight this year around the country.
