Artist News CMU Approved Releases
Approved: Leak
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 5 October 2021
For rising quintet Leak – or [LEAK], if you like – a tendency towards the dramatic results in sweeping, cinematic soundscapes, densely layered and heavy on the bass. Each track packs a heavy punch, with sharp percussion and roaring guitars sandwiching the electronic base of their music.
The band – who are set to release their debut album ‘Ghost’ next month – have become a mainstay of European showcase festivals (livestreamed and, you know, in actual real life) over the course of this year. The first single from the album, ‘Queendom’, was released last month, and is now followed by ‘Wall’, which boasts a soaring monster of a chorus.
One more single, ‘Screaming Underwater’, is set for release at the end of this month before the album drops on 26 Nov. Watch the video for ‘Wall’ here;
