The Deafening Colors - Carousel Season

Carousel Season marks the second full length for New Jersey's The Deafening Colors. Music that reflects the duos upbringing in Ocean and Atlantic City with a sound that mixes ambient, shoe gaze and dream pop that grew on me as
I listened. While immediate comparisons to a sleepier, experimental side of
the Beach Boys are unavoidable. One could also reference New Jersey storytellers The Front Bottoms and the long running New Brunswick quintet Sink Tapes.

While The Deafening Colors aren't what we're used to reviewing here at United By Rocket Science. It's definitely something I'd like to see/hear more of in the future. For Carousel Season was definitely something I found myself drawn to more and more with each song. From favorites such as Driving Horse's Ghost,
Waiting For The Axe and the expansive Part Time clocking in at a lengthy 5:30. I felt myself caught up in a moment. Caught up in the beauty of a song. James Damion

Huge - S/T Four Song EP

Huge, a band that features Underdog's Russ and
Dean Iglay along with
American Standard's
Matt Dolan seemingly come out of nowhere to deliver an adrenalin fueled four song EP that make the blood rush and the pulse quicken.
Fast, aggressive, fun and in your face. Huge features some devilish rhythms and heart racing leads but what's most notable is getting to hear Russ take on the vocal duties.
To put it best, I'd liken it to a
Pitbull taking on an intruder. Powerful and Relentless with a take no prisoners approach. Though some might expect a return to NJHC roots.
Huge represent a more Punkcore approach and seem more than at home with their Jersey Shore roots. Huge more than live up to their namesake. Thus leaving this listener hungry for more. "What's next Russ?" James Damion
