The LOOSE LIPS, from Long Island, NY are not the same band that released “Talkin’ Trash” in 1999 (LOOSE LIPS) on TKO Records, but they sure share some dirty, trashy rock’n’oll influences. “Heels” opens this 5 song EP in a NEW YORK DOLLS way, before a very British rock “Beautfiful Flower.” You can also hear these British influences in “Orange”, that brings The LIBERTINES to mind, but The LOOSE LIPS often sounds like a mix of garage and proto-punk, especially in “Vampire’, “Raqqa Roll”, or “Full Circle.”
A new band to keep an eye on, especially if you’re sick of polished bands that all sound the same, and if you ‘re not afraid of a bit of chaos! /Laurent C.
