Blues. Noise. Punk. Those are the main musical ingredients of the sound of Noisepicker. Amazingly they create a sound that uses all of them and unites them under a brittle soundscape where they can get together without any trying to outshine the other. Every note seems to serve a superior, common thread and goal. That may partially be to entertain the audience but it also surely is to give the duo an outlet for those sounds that none of their other bands can provide. In the case of bassist/vocalist Harry Armstrong that is a feat upon itself, as he is part in several bands which all have a unique sound, reaching from Stoner Doom (Orange Goblin) to Jazz Rock (The Earls of Mars) and even to Death Metal (Decomposed). Interestingly you will not find many connections to any of these bands in Noisepicker and even though one might estimate a certain proximity to Orange Goblin, that would be wrong, for apart from the distortion both bands do not share anything sound-wise.

This record is best enjoyed without headphones but with the speakers on loud (not full-cranking mind you!) to get the power the music surely has. This is emotionally perfect music, not musically perfect. Listening carefully to their melodies will show you that this band should not go on another hiatus but should keep on giving us answers. Even if we did not ask any question.
