Lewsberg - In This House

New album from Dutch quartet Lewsberg released from Cargo Records Distribution on March 27th

Very much along the same lines of recent releases, sparse, on paper disjointed but when a group is allowed to play out an idea it becomes something bigger and greater sum of its parts.

Another example of the strength in numbers in vogue at moment bands which have more than the traditional four person set up. From Black Country, New Road to Pet Shimmers bands are not afraid to have more people on stage to create a sense of community and togetherness making for a richer sounding collaborative effort, in essence a feast for the earlobes.

Lewsberg are akin to the other albums released today by Activity and FACS, songs that are struck by the discord of the individual in a woe begotten society and expressing themselves in a cultural art form

The Dutch group find it in making songs about drinking at lunchtime and they are very much a band who are not forcing ideas to happen and yet if you stay with them, the persistence and perserverance will pay off in dividends.

While it does not reach the heights of the aforementioned releases from the American bands, Lewsberg have nevertheless created an album that is great for the headphones and if you want to forget about the troubles of today.

In This House is out on 27th March on all formats from Cargo Records Distribution
