EP OF THE WEEK- HWDU-LOVE CRIME

 

Welsh four-piece Hwdu (Hoodoo) released their debut EP Love Crime on May 28th via Bandcamp.

The Alternative rock act, hailing from Swansea, Wales, consists of Lead Vocalist and guitarist Matt Williams, fellow guitarist and backing vocalist Jonny Rundell, drummer Owen Foote and bassist Gavin Smith. the band blends in-your-face rock with stoner grooves and punk sensibilities.

The six-track EP begins with the infectious lead single "Space Punk", an energetic punk song with driving distorted riffs, and buoyant vocals. This is a good start for fans of Clutch. The hard-hitting "Shit TV" takes a dig at the endless supply of streaming shows available. The aggressive riffs accompany a ruthless, up-tempo alternative rock song. The EP goes in a softer direction with the wistful punk ballad "Jessie" and the pop-rock track "Song for June". 

And finally, the dastardly "Counter Esperanto" with ever-contagious grooves, enthusiastic vocals, and intriguing storytelling.

HWDU takes influence from a wide range of punk, stoner, and pop to create six tracks of impactful music destined to make you fist pump, whilst all the time taking a nod to those aforementioned influences.
