Review: The Dateless Losers - Stood Up EP

image
The Dateless Losers are a punk band from Chatham, Ontario who are steadily making waves in their local scene with their take on the ever-growing genre. Their latest release, Stood Up, is one that shows a wealth of potential and just might renew your hope in today’s music industry.

Stood Up is an EP filled to the brim with everything a music lover could possibly want: screaming vocals, hard-hitting drums, screeching guitars and enough angst to last you days. Throughout the span of a single track, listeners are treated to at least two or three genres, all intertwined in such a way that the effort appears seamless. While some could view this as disjointed or lost, others will see it as a kind of no-holds bar, with songs like “Adventures Of Sam & Blue” and “Nobody Cares” leaving an impact that wouldn’t be possible without the constantly changing tempos, untouched vocals and overall raw feel that many artists seem to miss.

With a sound that mixes the likes of ska, punk, alternative and rock, The Dateless Losers aim high with Stood Up and appear to land on their feet. The EP is an excellent release from the band who are still relatively new and shows enough potential to take the group as far as they wish. I’m excited to see what the band have in store for the future and, if Stood Up is any indication, I’m sure I’ll be pleased.
