Our Take

MUSKETS' latest offering, "Chewin," is a delightful blend of raucous energy and artful introspection. The Brighton-based band takes listeners on a rollicking journey through punk anthems and melodic ballads, creating a sonic experience that is both chaotic and profound.

From the moment the opening track, "All Else is a Curse," kicks in with its thunderous drums and distorted guitars, it's clear that MUSKETS are here to make a statement. Lead singer Daniel Smith's gritty vocals cut through the noise, delivering lyrics that range from personal reflections to societal critiques with raw honesty.

Tracks like "17 Years" and "And here" showcase the band's dynamic range, seamlessly transitioning from frenetic punk riffs to hauntingly beautiful melodies. The album's standout moment, "In the Company of Kings," is a poignant meditation on fame and success, featuring shimmering guitars and emotionally charged vocals that will linger long after the final notes fade.

While "Chewin" may not reinvent the wheel in terms of punk rock, MUSKETS' infectious energy and thoughtful lyricism make this album a standout in the genre. Fans of bands like Basement and Title Fight will find much to love here, as MUSKETS prove that they are a force to be reckoned with in the UK music scene. So, chew on this: MUSKETS have delivered a deliciously satisfying album that is sure to leave you craving more.

About the artist

Muskets

Ah, MUSKETS. The band that storms onto the music scene like a hurricane, leaving a trail of distortion and chaos in their wake. Hailing from Brighton, this punk rock quartet has been making waves with their infectious energy and raw sound. Formed in 2014, MUSKETS wasted no time in establishing themselves as one of the most exciting bands in the UK underground scene. Their debut album, "Chew," is a relentless onslaught of fuzzy guitars, pounding drums, and anguished vocals. It's a cathartic experience, like screaming into the void while simultaneously headbanging your heart out. But don't let their raucous sound fool you - MUSKETS are a band with layers. Beneath the noise and chaos lies a keen sense of melody and songcraft. Tracks like "You're So Cool" and "Drowsy" showcase the band's ability to balance aggression with catchiness, creating music that is as infectious as it is cathartic. Live, MUSKETS are a force to be reckoned with. Their high-energy performances have earned them a reputation as one of the most exciting live acts in the UK. Frontman Daniel Smith is a whirlwind of energy, thrashing around the stage with a manic intensity that is both exhilarating and terrifying to behold. In a music scene that is often plagued by pretension and posturing, MUSKETS are a breath of fresh air. They wear their hearts on their sleeves and their influences on their sleeves, unafraid to show their punk rock roots. With their infectious energy, raw sound, and undeniable talent, MUSKETS are a band that demands to be heard.
