Breaking out into a stomping concoction of snarling guitars and wild drums, Sheffield trio FloodHounds are back making noise.
Tapping into the grit of blues and the fury of punk, Jack Flynn (Guitar/Vocals), Lauren Greaves (Drums) and new to 2022; bass player Anna Melidone, offer raw and unruly live energy.
Releasing new single ‘Panic Stations’, FloodHounds puts the outfit in the limelight once again with a song that immediately catches your ear with rousing riffs and electrifying bass.
Speaking about the single further, Jack Flynn said: “‘Panic Stations’ touches on the air of uncertainty we’ve all been labouring under. I wanted to write a song that echoed us roaring out of lockdown, and back into real life.
“The takeaway is that sticking together will serve us better than alienation and blind panic. It’s great fun to play live, it’s heavy but catchy, so people seem to really get on board with it and get stuck in.”
During the Covid-19 lockdown, the band were still busy despite not being able to perform live. They put out live streams and sessions, for platforms such as Jagermeister, God Is In The TV Zine, Wentworth Festival, as well as self-producing a 10-track acoustic album and an animated video, made by Jack, for ‘Out Of Time’.
They also made the final shortlist of Record Store Day’s national video competition, and their technically ambitious ‘Take It Too Far’ video, already playlisted by BT TV, was highly placed in the London Music Video Festival 2020.
