Towards the end of 2023, Leicester’s Our Souls released ‘I Won’t Tell You The Same Lie’, a five track blast of indie punk that valued high octane sounds, and also demonstrated some sharp but pleasingly ragged playing. In approximately fifteen minutes, the DIY release showed why the band made perfect label-mates with the hugely prolific Das Kapitans and garage punk heroes Get The Fuck Outta Dodge.

OUR SOULS – I Won’t Tell You The Same Lie EP
On this follow up to ‘I’m An Adult In A Punk Rock Band’, Leicester’s Our Souls condense all of their best traits into a five song, thirteen minute blast.‘I Won’t Tell You The Same Lie’ appears to value its ferocious guitar riffs above everything else, but scratch just beneath the surface noise, and you’ll find musicians who understand an importance of big choruses and tight basslines to help drive their unquestionably enjoyable noise – and in a couple of cases, aren’t afraid to throw everything at an arrangement to see what sticks. More often than not, their gutsy approach works brilliantly.
