Violent Soho

Brisbane, Australia-based band Violent Soho have just dropped ‘Everything Is A-OK’, their fifth studio album.

The four-piece have become known for their brand of Aussie grunge/alt rock, soaked in 90’s nostalgia. Their back catalogue draws influence from Pixies, Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins and Dinosaur Jr among others, and channels it through life in the Aussie suburbs. Mansfield, Brisbane to be precise.

Their latest album is arguably their most accomplished work to date. Opening the record is ‘Sleep Year’. It’s a fitting introduction, with a pulsing opening building into a wall of guitars, before dropping down to welcome Luke Boerdam’s familiar vocal. Three and a half minutes into the album, and it’s clear Violent Soho have made a sonic return.
