Berries - Faults (2021)

Berries are a three piece rock band who have honed an engaging, punchy rock sound that’s filled with delicious melodies and naughty fuzzy riffs. The band was first formed through Holly (guitar and vocals) and Lauren (bass), who grew up together in Norfolk, played in different bands on the same bills and jammed through their shared musical influences like Jimi Hendrix, Red Hot Chili Peppers and The Subways. They didn’t get around to starting a band together until they moved to London and met Lucie (drums) who, in their words, “totally got the style straight away.” The band released their 'Lies' EP in 2019, which followed singles 'Discreetly', 'Wild Vow' and 'Faults', all of which were posted on Soundcloud, along with a number of other songs. It all went very quiet after the EP came out, and then they suddenly posted a radio edit of a new song last month, so they're still going strong, and while we wait for an album from them, I've gathered together the tracks they've posted so far to make a great album length release from this superb indie rock band.

    1. I shall be posting more of these new, unknown bands, as I've been collecting music from them for about six years, and many of them are well worth hearing, even if they've since broken up.
