So I am good friends with a nice bunch of boys in a band that go by the name Enlou. This nice bunch of boys just went and recorded some songs at the lovely Lunchington Studios and I must say they sound great. To my knowledge the EP, which is tentatively titled The Year We Grew Our Faces is the first proper recording that the band has had and it sounds absolutely fantastic. Their sound is awash in effected guitars and reverb but still urgent and forceful enough to not get lost out in space. There is also a groovy dance able element thrown in there too between what's reminiscent of Colour Revolt and the more recent Brand New. I have heard three of the five songs that will be on their forthcoming EP and they are all superb, enchanting and extremely catchy. Oh yeah, did I forget to mention that poised as they are to release what will undoubtedly be one of the best releases this year, not a single one of them is out of high school? Many bands twice their age don't even come close to their level of songwriting maturity and the uniqueness of their sound. I'll post a song here closer to the release date but for now you can preview one of the songs, "Mossu", at their myspace page. Utterly beautiful.
