New striking strokes
20 February 2025
Band: SKLOSS
Who: Formed in Austin, TX as a husband-and-wife duo between American drummer/vocalist Karen Skloss and Scottish guitarist/vocalist Sandy Carson
during the COVID lockdown.
Surrounded by drums and amps and the need to play loud, their sonic sound
of became a response to the crazy world just outside their window. Jams became
songs, while the noise level, experimentation and distortion went up to a volume
much louder than you’d expect from a duo.
New single: MIND HIVE
Following the title trackand Imagine 1000 Dadsthis is the 3rd shared track
from their upcoming debut album The Pattern Speaks. Out on March7th.
Pre-order info here.
TUTV: After a short cracking, distorted guitar intro all hell breaks loose. SKLOSS
produce a raw and rough clangor that grabs you by the throat and holds its
firm grip all the way. No arty farty stuff for this garage punk blues tandem.
Karen Skloss hits her drums mercilessly, creating a titanic hurly-burly wall of
bone-crushing noizz, while Sandy Carson seems to play 10 guitars simultaneously.
Wailing vocals pop up now and then and the schizo finale completes the whole
volcanic shebang.
Think early White Stripes turning up the decibels to an illegal level losing control
in the process. Advice: alert your neighbourhood before you press play.
