In The Crowd
 
In The Crowd Quantity in Basket: None
Price: $14.00
Artist: Absolute Losers
Manufacturer: We Are Busy Bodies Records
 
 
Quantity:
 

Canadian trio Absolute Losers follow their instincts and delve into 60’s-influenced melodic pop for their second album "In The Crowd"And, for The Losers, it’s a winner!  “On several occasions, whilst listening to the record I was struck by that familiar feeling that I’d heard this music before.  That’s not to suggest that Absolute Losers are copyists – they’re not.  They just have an enviable knack of being able to hook their listeners in.  And the tasteful ‘Words Of Love’-like guitar lick that propels penultimate track, ‘Better Things To Do’, along its way has that very effect – bright and sunny, and so VERY solid.  And, it’s the a dreamy, vibrant, harmony-drenched chant – ‘It’s An Understanding’ – that concludes the record.  There’s an underlying Beach Boys aura to the song as it gently fades.  What’s not to like?” - AtTheBarrier  “Despite coming from Canada’s smallest province Prince Edward Island boys Absolute Loserrs have got a big, big sound on ‘In the Crowd’, brimming with jangle and Beatlesque melodies.  Departing somewhat from the more experimental pop rock sound of their 2023 debut ‘At the Mall’, you only have to hear the opening chords of album opener ‘At The Same Time’ to know this record is getting right to the rock and roll point.  And it’s pretty much the same attack on the title song.  ‘Eagerness’ pauses the rock bluster for some very April Wine high-melody moments.  But the range of song stylings isn’t limited.  There are clear Buddy Holly influences all over ‘Don’t Go’ and some very George Harrison guitar flourishes colouring ‘For So Long.’   ‘Better Things To Do’ rides a pretty fine Beatles/Tom Petty line while ‘Kiss of Death’ gives a punky feel to a solid BTO rhythm guitar groove.  Shifting to a more modern mood, ‘You Never Say You Love Me’ has a Sloan-like pop clarity to my ears.  Then there’s ‘Letter,’ a song that sounds like a more upbeat Weezer.  Personally, I think ‘Your Colours’ is also pretty special, almost folky with great jangly guitar and yearning vocals. Taken all in over one sitting the album is a delightful selection of tunes.  Absolute Losers have produced a real winner!” - PopRockRecord  GREAT!!
