The Top 30 Albums Of 2020 (So Far): LOSER - 'Mindless Joy'

'The Music' team on the albums you need to hear from 2020.

More LOSER LOSER

"A beautiful cross of Foo Fighters and Smashing Pumpkins, mixing melancholic guitars with powerfully adamant vocals." - Taylor Marshall

After recording their 2018 EP Restless Noise as a three piece, LOSER expanded their ranks for a wall of sound and added two more guitarists. 

The end result is Mindless Joy, which shows the band also expanded their sound to be more layered, with solos and big choruses entering into play and added to their arsenal beyond standard pop chords. 

Mindless Joy sees the band as one of the frontrunners in the local guitar-focused, alternative rock scene.
