Shout Out Louds: Our Ill Wills Review
I was chomping at the bit awaiting the release of Our Ill Wills which finally hit North America on September 11th.The Shout Out Louds have been a personal favorite of mine ever since I heard a copy of “Howl Howl Gaff Gaff”. They reminded me so much of The Cure and with Our Ill Wills I believe they have grown from that.
To me the Shout Out Louds put out better hits then actual albums and Our Ill Wills is FILLED with some great songs. There are a few mediocre that doesn’t either spark your interest in catchiness, lyrics or how it’s played but I kind of expect that out of the Shout Out Louds.
One of the things I didn’t expect when listening to our “Our Ill Wills” was the progression of Bebban Stenborg taking a bigger role in singing. She backs up beautifully in arguably the best song on the album with Impossible. She also sings the full song in “Blue Headlights” now my second favorite track.
This album is getting a 4.5 out of 5. The hits carry this one well and though I am probably biased here. Not the type of album you would listen in its entirety but like PopMatters says, their greatest hits album will be absolutely amazing.
Check out below for the video for impossible and Blue Headlights!
