Review – Knocked Loose, SWX, Bristol, March 7th

From the moment Knocked Loose took the stage, it was as if a tidal wave of energy engulfed the venue. The anticipation in the air was palpable, and as the first notes of ‘Deep in the Willow’ reverberated through the speakers, the crowd exploded into motion. Bodies surged forward, carried by the raw intensity of the music, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening.

The excitement was not without reason. With their highly anticipated album, ‘You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To,’ set to release on May 10th, Knocked Loose’s UK tour had been a hot ticket, selling out venues from Glasgow to Bristol. And as they unleashed their fury on stage, it became clear why.

From the opening riff to the final chord, the band delivered a relentless onslaught of sound. The sheer power of their performance was matched only by the fervor of the crowd, creating an electric atmosphere that crackled with energy. Bryan Garris, with his commanding presence and vocals that echoed the intensity of their recorded tracks, held the audience in the palm of his hand.

Tracks like ‘Counting Worms’ incited chaos in the crowd, with circle pits swirling and bodies colliding in a frenzy of movement. And when they debuted their latest single, ‘Blinding Faith,’ the reaction was no less fervent. The song, infused with the same raw emotion and aggression that defines Knocked Loose’s sound, ignited a fire in both the band and their fans, fueling the energy of the night.

But perhaps what truly set this performance apart was the sense of camaraderie that permeated the air. As vocalists from supporting acts Headbussa and Deafheaven joined Knocked Loose on stage, it was evident that this was more than just a concert – it was a gathering of like-minded souls united by their love for heavy music.

In the end, as the final notes faded away and the echoes of the night lingered in the air, it was clear that Knocked Loose had delivered not just a show, but an experience. And for those lucky enough to be in attendance, it was a night they wouldn’t soon forget.
