Y’know, Greece is responsible for some damn good music lately. It could simply be down to Inner Ear Records filtering out all the bad stuff in order to promote the good stuff but there has been some really good music coming out of that area of the planet in recent years. The Cave Children, Stella, Film all appear on the record label and now there’s one more addition – The Noise Figures. Having caused a storm with their debut album, the hard rock duo have kinda taken a little time off to chill before heading back into the studio to create a strong follow up. Fortunately Aphelion is here, and it is strong. A two-piece making serious noise isn’t so rare these days but the power to keep you gripped for the full length of an album is really something of a treat. Reminiscent of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club’s bruised blues and Death From Above 1979’s hardin-your-guts riffs, Aphelion takes the listener on a multi-paced journey through a desert of brooding intensity, with raw fuzzed-out energy and tender desperation leaving you bloodied and beaten but feeling all the better for it.

If you like your music to be heavy with a whole load of distorted attitude then Aphelion is something you should check out. Shoot the Moon kicks things off with a thick, fuzzy riff flooding the airwaves against a pummelling drum beat and vocals that drag their way through it all. Psychedelic vibes hit hard as the instrumental washes over your ear drums to create a hazy episode that seemingly plays on loop in your mind – it’s an awesome feeling. The Noise Figures end this trip by cranking up the tempo just a tad to deliver a closing section that hits harder than Hurricane Patricia (topical) and causes you to get harder. A great start to the record.

Variety does let loose on Aphelion which allows The Noise Figures to focus their heavy sound down some different avenues. In The Boneyard delivers another hard hitting performance whereas Run has a real Chuck Berry, 50’s Rock N Roll tempo to it which comes as a welcome surprise. The title track takes us back to the psychedelic journey experienced previously and throws some extra spotlight to the bass this time round, and Holy One sounds like something The Hives could have delivered in their heyday. Great track. All this variation does mix up momentum but when you’ve got songs as good as these momentum is the least of our worries when you’ve got everybody dancing. 

Aphelion is an exceptional collection of formidable tracks that evoke epic imagery throughout with The Noise Figures’ attention to detail being the catalyst. All music was recorded to tape in the short space of an intense five days and, instead of settling for universal tuning, the band experimented at 432Hz. A fairly uncommon method (aka Pythagorean tuning) giving the album an undeniably fresh edge. The results of their extensive touring makes Aphelion feel like the ultimate desert road trip soundtrack. Bampari’s guitar riffs evoke images of dust storms and bewitching mirages. Paired with Nikas’ menacing vocals, the tracks bounce between black magic and divine intervention. The two-piece makes plenty of noise, filling in every space on the LP’s 10 tracks with aching distortion and slowcore rhythms.
