Heaven's End

Released

Loop’s debut album is a perfect snapshot of a young band with aggressive energy also finding a way to be not exactly subtle but possessed of a strong sense of near-total focus. While the overwhelming feedback and riff flow of songs like “Soundhead” and “Head On” feels very much like any number of end-of-sixties garage bands blasting away, it’s the slower songs that show that they learned the best lesson from acts like the Stooges and Suicide both: obsessive and mesmerizing grind and rhythm, as songs such as “Forever” and “Too Real To Feel” show.
