Looner gets "Naked," musically that is, on their latest 5-Song EP Rules. They strip down their sound to bare bones and then build it piece by piece into a rock solid amalgamation-ultimately; a rock 'n' roll force not to be taken lightly.

This incredibly full and power-packed music is Zoë Roché (drums, vocals, loops) and Angel Roché Jr. (vocals, guitar), a husband a wife duo that rocks so hard it hurts, but boy does it ever feel so good.

Angel calls their recording multi-tasking as an art form; a live and risky way to record in the studio, yet taking the leap to see what happens fulfills their ultimate purpose, killer music with great sound. The result is a loud and ballsy CD, more like a full five piece band.

It is ironic that they titled their CD Rules because they do not follow any and come out smelling like a rose on these tracks...you gotta love that indie spirit! This CD is nothing but great alternative hard rock!
