It's been already three years since I posted about Hooray for Humans' debut EP. Now, the Spanish collective is back with brand new dose of noisy energy. The October's Tell Your Family and Friends that You Love Them combines the twee pop innocence with some serious guitar noise.
This energy and general positive feeling that comes from their music shouldn't come as surprise judging by the project's name and the debut album's title. However, it's not something that is clearly expressed in music itself: the noisy tracks are mostly kept in slower pace with murmuring vocals on top of that. It sounds very much like RIDE or The Jesus and Mary Chain meet the gloomier R.E.M.'s pieces. Generally: very moody and very cozy. I love how the calmer mood coexists here with very clear and apparent noise of the guitars: for example, Tenth Floor seems to be particularly good at this exciting combination.
Especially that the further the album goes, the slower and moodier it gets. The album's title's thought may not be so positive and careless after all: there's a lot about difficult parts of life on this record, including saying goodbye to other people and the way the last year or two impacted all of us. But perhaps it's still the most important thing: to keep your friends close.
