The Loudest Sound, the new EP from Past Life, is out now via Mad Dragon Records. Over the course of three tracks, the band navigates through emotive-driven pop-rock, pushing the tempo to effectively articulate a level of personal suspense. Instrumental rushes paired with the guttural vocal outpouring assist in making this a roaring and raucous release. The melodic bridge that both tears you up inside and joyously relieves the pressure valve becomes an infectious combination. (Photo by Michelle Baumval)
