Noise Addict - it was never about the audience
Noise Addict just released a new album! Not only that, the lineup now consists of Ben Lee, and Lara Meyerratken, but also Lou Barlow. Could it be any better? Yep, it's free too.
Get it from their website. The idea behind the band is that they just set out mics in Ben's bedroom and record. That's it. And believe it or not, it's actually an amazingly good album. I was sort of expecting a piece of crap, to be perfectly honest with you, but this is actually going to be in my top albums of the year, without a doubt. This is a project straight out of the indie vaults of the 90s, and from looking at their website the band gives off the feel these days of being a group of friends trying to give the people of today some good old fashioned indie rock. In fact, Ben simply says "here is the new Noise Addict album "it was never about the audience". its the first Noise Addict album in about 14 years. it felt like time for a new one." A great album from some great musicians that just want people to have good music to listen to. What surprises me the most about this is that these 3 can just sit down, have a good time writing some simple songs, and actually produce something better than what the vast majority of new bands coming out these days can do. Hmm, I think that says something...
