Holly hell this is pure sweetness! Awesome work guys, I will gladly buy this

@st-manuel: man thanks so much for the words - really means a lot and keeps us doing what we're doing!

Nice grunge guitar sound, very good Rock style. I like the voice.

Not many bands can claim to be 'internationally sourced'. A Doubtful Sound formed somewhere in the mid 00's in 
Christchurch, New Zealand – a beautiful city on the Pacific coast which is slightly earthquake prone. Following the 
catastrophic quake in 2011, Hamish Woodside (guitar, vocals) and Ollie Law (drums) were faced with a big decision. 
They had to leave the ruined city so, naturally, they moved to Bristol, UK.

Now inadvertently a two piece, they carried on writing and rehearsing but it wasn't until they found James Williams 
(guitars) that their sound started to settle. They started rehearsing more frequently and discovered Jake Bright (bass) at their rehearsal studio's front desk. After asking him to put an advert out for a bass player on behalf of the band, he 
invited himself in to play instead. This move completed the quartet and gave birth to some monstrous live shows and 
acclaimed EP 'Make Loud Sexy'.

2014 hails the release of their new record, 'Best is Over'. Launched on 5th July, it sets a new gold standard for self 
produced underground music. Made on a budget of basically nothing in music industry terms, it proves that even 
without any label affiliation, A Doubtful Sound have the ability to throw punches alongside the top rock acts of today.

With an uncompromising sound, A Doubtful Sound have been compared favourably to alt rock and grunge heavyweights of the likes of Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters and Soundgarden.

RNCM Big Band - Manteca

Hold me back

Huzzah - we're back loud as hell and ugly as ever!  At The River is nice wee recording our new guitarist and all round GC James helped whip up in his spare bedroom. Needless to say, we thought you wouldn't mind taking a listen to. Cheers!

At The River (Demo)

Yay! It's not long now till we finally bring out an EP (as in actually on a CD and nicely mastered for everyone.) Best of all it's going to be free and this tune may well be on it. If you want to download it - follow us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/adoubtfulsound so we can give lovely free tunes!

More I Know (Demo)

HUZZAH! We're back, loud as hell and ugly as ever! After a brief reprieve and a very very long plane ride, displaced NZ'ers Ollie and Hamish have teamed up with Bristol based music mad man James in a bid to keep bringing you stupidly loud music.
