Former members of Dutch acts The Spades, Transmission0 and Restless Youth got together in what they called Hooghwater. Now, Hooghwater (or high water) is the last thing they need in Holland, yet somehow I’m guessing that nobody will mind these guys passing by.
Whether they’re influenced by Queens In The Stone Age in opener « Electric Ghost », rock ever so coolly yet in a completely vintage way in « Chaos In Its Heart » or look up the meaning of the word grunge in « Humble Eyes », it always sounds pretty damn good. And that’s just the first three songs ! Still six songs to go after that never sound anything less than good.
They might not be the most original band out there but with a little jam session here and there, great riffs and a solid grasp on melodies, « Echos » is a helluva lot of fun to listen to. And sometimes that’ s all everyone can ask for.
Score : 7 out of 10
