Cut from the same cloth as Atlanta’s Black Crowes and armed with a vintage Stones-style raunch, Loud Earth keeps the guitars up front and center with gut-level rock. Built around Jersey natives Christian Roreau (vocals), Mike Askin and Rich Miele (guitar), Todd Erwin (bass) and Mike Bennett (drums) the five deliver a primitive swell of chunky riffs and lambasting rhythms. Leading the pack is “Rotten”, already a favorite on local radio that grinds out a duel-guitar crunch and makes way for a tasty little solo. Roreau’s vocals polish up the ruckus with a shot of bar-room finesse.
“Midnight Bitch”, with its ample use of slide, feedback and constrained vibrato is pure energy at it’s best. The song sees Askin and Miele swapping licks with a Kossoff edge for a proper lesson in rock-guitar. The riffs keep coming through “Poor Baby”, “She’s Worth It”, “Better For You” and “No Good No More”. They even get a little country in the southern-fried “Sorry”. A couple tracks venture out of the box like the ballads “Bleed” and “Beautiful Mess”. Even the mid-tempo “Squeeze n’ Pull” breaths new life into old-hat rock standards. Never over done, the boys rely on a piston-driven machine that churns out addicting rock and roll.
