Our Take
Our Take
GLOO's latest album, "How Not To Be Happy," is an electrifying rollercoaster of sound that will have you questioning your own sanity in the best way possible. From the moment you hit play, you're transported into a world where the guitars are crunchy, the drums are pounding, and the lyrics are so brutally honest that you might start questioning your own life choices.
Lead singer Andy Clarke's vocals are equal parts snarling and tender, weaving their way through each track with a raw intensity that's impossible to ignore. The band's energy is infectious, filling every corner of the room like a tidal wave of noise that threatens to sweep you off your feet.
Tracks like "Pity Party" and "Force You" are anthems for the disaffected, offering a bleak but strangely uplifting commentary on the futility of modern life. And just when you think you've got a handle on their sound, GLOO throws a curveball with the hauntingly beautiful "Stay," a track that showcases a softer side to the band without losing any of their signature edge.
In a world where happiness can feel like an elusive dream, GLOO reminds us that it's okay to embrace our darker emotions and find solace in the chaos. "How Not To Be Happy" is a bold statement from a band that refuses to play by the rules, and we can't wait to see where they take us next.

About the artist
Gloo
Ah, GLOO - the enigmatic quartet hailing from the seaside town of Littlehampton, known for their raucous blend of punk, grunge, and DIY ethos. With their combustible energy and infectious melodies, they've quickly emerged as one of the most exciting acts on the UK underground scene. Fronted by the charismatic vocalist Thomas Harfield, GLOO's live performances are a whirlwind of sweat, swagger, and sheer adrenaline. Backed by the thunderous rhythms of bassist Simon Crowley and drummer Mark Harfield, and the frenetic guitar work of Ben Mason, the band creates a sonic assault that hits you like a punch to the gut. Their latest album "A Pathetic Youth" is a testament to their no-holds-barred approach to songwriting, with tracks like "Force You" and "Pissheads" delivering a blistering assault on the senses. Drawing on influences ranging from Nirvana to Black Flag, GLOO manages to carve out a sound that is uniquely their own - gritty, raw, and unapologetically real. But it's not just their music that sets GLOO apart - it's their DIY ethos and punk spirit that truly elevates them above the rest. From self-releasing their music to booking their own tours, the band is a shining example of what can be achieved with sheer determination and a refusal to compromise. So if you're looking for music that will shake you to your core and leave you craving more, look no further than GLOO. With their unbridled energy and infectious hooks, this is a band that's poised to take the world by storm.
