Our Take

QUICKSAND's latest offering, Distant Populations, is a sonic rollercoaster that takes listeners on a journey through the dark and brooding world of alternative rock. The album kicks off with the explosive track "Inversion," setting the tone for what's to come. Frontman Walter Schreifels's vocals soar over gritty guitars and pounding drums, creating a wall of sound that is both exhilarating and haunting.

Tracks like "Lightning Field" and "Colossus" showcase QUICKSAND's ability to seamlessly blend elements of punk, post-hardcore, and heavy metal into a cohesive and captivating sound. The band's energy is infectious, leaving you headbanging and air-guitaring along with each anthemic chorus.

Distant Populations also sees QUICKSAND experimenting with new textures and dynamics, incorporating lush melodies and intricate arrangements that add depth and complexity to their already powerful sound. "Brushed" is a standout track that combines delicate acoustic guitar with Schreifels's emotive vocals, creating a hauntingly beautiful ballad that will send shivers down your spine.

Overall, Distant Populations is a triumph for QUICKSAND, showcasing their evolution as a band while staying true to their roots. For fans of gritty, intense rock music, this album is an absolute must-listen. So grab a pint, crank up the volume, and let QUICKSAND take you on a wild ride through the world of distant populations. Cheers!
