Blog #131--Review of The Epilogues' New Single: Loser Denial--

Loser Denial came out a few days ago on soundcloud and I spent the next 4 days listening to the track. I love The Epilogues, and my bias is apparent, but objectively, the song reflects an original sound, a pleasantly variating tempo, solid lyrics and a mood that brings out a calmness to the urban space. Cinematics was an amazing album, a melange of deep, slow piano tracks that connoted melancholy and beauty, and upbeat stories of jealousy, tragic romance, and the growing pains of a difficult bildungsroman. Loser Denial promises a great new album coming this spring. The track remembers the intrepid flow and sound of Elliott Smith and the generously musical and progressive sound of The Beatles. The Epilogues have grown with every album--I won't be surprised to hear them on the airwaves anytime soon, if our society starts to care about good music. At least we'll have CHOM and local University radio channels.

Check it out on their soundcloud!
