HWDU – Love Crime EP
Self released – 2021
Rock, Punk, Stoner, Skate
Rated: ****

The four that make up HWDU (pronounced as Hoodoo, apparently) are about to release their first EP. It’s called Love Crime and holds 6 tracks and possesses quite a few different styles, which are glued together something highly infectious and entertaining. They hail from Swansea in south Wales and two of the members are also a part of Sigiriya, Suns Of Thunder and Estuary Blacks. Opener and lead single Space Punk comes out swinging and is an in your face kind of punk rocking anthem that also speeds through the stoner landscape. A ballsy and speedy hardrocking track follows before we get thrown a college rocking punky curveball in the form of Jessie. Title track Love Crime is one of those stoner grooves that will immediately capture your heart and soul, thanks to the melody, harmony and all out musical quality. And yes, those two minutes of Song For June will definitely blow you away and the final send off is intense and proper. The four that make up HWDU definitely deliver some heavy rocking voodoo! (See, you know, that rhymed…)
