The Uneven – “Loud” - Reviewed By Jenny Tate ! Check it out here at this link: https://jennytate.wordpress.com/2022/01/03/the-uneven-loud/

Mingling classic 70’s rock with 90’s alternative metal and early blues, The Uneven aim to boost people’s will to empower themselves to fight for their rights and to push through the obstacles barricading our way forward. ‘Loud’ is a symbol of inner screams we need to express.

Released in September 2021, ‘Loud’ follows their 2020 debut track, ‘Punching Bag’ and ‘No More Violations’, released the same year.

Inspired by traditional metal, such as Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Soundgarden and Nine Inch Nails, ‘Loud’ is now available, to stream online. An associated video is also out, on YouTube. Video director – Mark Hammill.

Co-written by husband and wife team Andrew and Stephanie Hooker, ‘Loud’ exemplifies their musical chemistry.

Recorded on the outskirts of Nashville, TN, The Cave Studios, Leipers Fork, TN. Produced by Patrick Thrasher (Rush, Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers).

TU are a trio, featuring AH (guitars/lead vocals), Michael Meadows (bass/BG vocals) and Simona Bressi (drums).

Loud – An unusually alternative punk intro, with blues leanings. Instantly rhythmic, with melancholy tinged vocals. It’s bouncy, with light breaking through the downbeat emphasis, lifting more, as the track progresses. Good consistent beat, decent melody, gradually gaining energy. Fairly short, but long enough to get a feel for the fun underpinning the nostalgia. It’s certainly atmospheric, especially in a visual sense. Slight echo style. That bluesy refrain gets stronger, throughout. A well performed and produced, if acquired sound. Ending with a little more groove. Video a tad underwhelming, but some great thunder and lightning sequences. - Jenny Tate

The Uneven
[th ee uhn-ee-vuhn ]

"One thing we all want to do in 2021, is scream LOUD"
The Uneven aspires to bridge the fuzz and sludge of 70s hard rock with the guttural ferocity of 90s alternative metal, while never forgetting the primal roots of the blues. The Uneven is influenced by iconic groups like Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Soundgarden, and Nine Inch Nails. The band's message is to fight for truth, to self-empower, and to overcome adversity.

The Uneven made its musical debut in June 2020 with "Punching Bag" and then in August 2020, followed up with a second release, "No More Violations"."Punching Bag" was premiered by UK blogger "Outlaws of the Sun".

The Uneven's 3rd single, “Loud” is available on all streaming platforms! Go here to stream it!

A new video directed by UK director, Marc Hamill, will be released in support of "Loud" on October 24, 2021.

"Loud" was co-written by Andrew Hooker (music) and his wife Stephanie Hooker (Lyrics)."My wife and I have a special dynamic as songwriters. She will give me a lyric and then days or even hours later, I will emerge from my studio with music set to her words. Stephanie writes in a style that allows the listener to come to their own conclusions. “Loud” was recorded in the outskirts of Nashville, TN at The Cave Studios in Leipers Fork, TN, and was recorded, mixed, and produced by Patrick Thrasher (Rush, Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers).

The Uneven is:
Andrew Hooker - guitar/lead vocals
