Review - Lauren Louvre

Genre - Progressive/Post-Hardcore

Band Members -
Carlos:Lead Vocals/Rhythm Guitar
Ian:Lead Guitar/Vocals
Dan:Synth/Keys/Screams
Josean:Drums/Samples


I found this band pretty recently on Myspace...and I gotta say they're quite awesome. Awesome enough that I decided to review them for my first one on this here site. They're a great, great band drawing influence from more progressive stuff and some post-hardcore as well.


The music itself is quite well written...lots of fairly complicated, spacey-sounding guitar parts, the occasional abrupt shift in time signature and just generally unusal time signatures. The vocals are absolutely wonderful...Carlos has a lot of talent, and the screams are also wonderful...they don't sound out of place at all. They happen just when they need to and sound excellent.

These guys are definitely a good band to chill out with...but they can also be intense, if you're in such a mood. There's a few different ways you can take the sound depending on your own mood. And the lyrics are also great stuff, they fit the music quite well.

I can see these guys going places...especially if they end up at Warped this year as they are aspiring to. Definitely a band that deserves a whole lot of attention, and hopefully they will get it soon enough. A lot more original than a lot of the stuff that's on the TV/radio at the moment...and worth more than just one listen.

Check 'em out, yo.

Apologies & show time

First, our sincere apologies for not updating, I've been very bogged down with personal stuff, and Tony has been working, so we haven't had time for reviews this week. Tony promises one soon though.

Don't forget to tune in for the show on Saturday night! I'm gonna be doing it mostly solo, as Tony has to work late, but we hope he can make it for part of the second hour.

Thank you for your patience.
