Hard-Fi – Killer Sounds

- by Thomas

Hard-Fi is one of those bands that I never think of when looking for a fun album to listen to. Yet when I do end up hearing one of their songs, chances are I’ll end up liking it. That’s once again no different on “Killer Sounds”, the band’s third album.

Sure, the lyrics are inane. But the songs themselves are catchy as fuck and linger between rocking and danceable while echoing everyone from The Clash and New Order to more recent bands such as Kasabian and even Chase & Status. Angsty and anthemic is another way to describe “Killer Sounds” and while you’ll be hard pressed to find anything original on here, Hard-Fi did deliver an album’s worth of party songs.
Score: 7 out of 10
