» Shout Out Louds - Manning Bar - Sydney University, NSW - August 22, 2007
Swedish "pop perfectionists" Shout Out Louds have sure been busy these last few years, filling their passports with stamps from all corners of the world as they toured their 2005 album, 'Howl Howl Gaff Gaff', which featured the singles 'The Comeback' and 'Please Please Please'. On top of being the support act of choice for the likes of The Strokes, The Magic Numbers and Kings of Leon they played countless headline shows and even managed a whirlwind tour of Sydney and Melbourne in May 2006.
Now, 2007, Shout Out Louds have a new album to be released locally via Dew Process and the esteemed Merge Records in the US. The wonderful 'Our Ill Wills', produced by Bjorn Yttling of Peter Bjorn & John, hits the shelves July 7, and once again showcases the band's high energy, ultra-melodic sound that's been in place right from the beginning. (Something for the trainspotters: it was actually Ted Malmros from Shout Out Louds who directed the video for Peter Bjorn & John's hit song Young Folks)
First single, 'Tonight I Have To Leave It', is already getting great radio play and is just one taste of the infectious pop from Shout Out Louds.
