US heavy and noise rock unit ABRAMS premieres sizzling new album "Loon"

Denver, Colorado's finest purveyors of heavy rock earworms and noisy madness ABRAMS have teamed up with Decibel Magazine to premiere their new studio album "Loon" ahead of its official release on Blues Funeral Recordings this April 17th.

With American idealism and societal unity in flames, Abrams’ ethereal ambiance has been permeated by vibrating, hair-trigger fury. The grinding hopelessness and chaos of these times have infused them with shattering intensity. Urgent and abrasive, their new album Loon is acerbic, fed up, and riddled with pulverizing fire. Wistful melodies warp into dissonance and aggression. Crystalline beauty is inhabited by bitterness and rage. 

Their instinctive hooks aren't gone, and hopeful moments do shine intermittently through. But it’s clear that Abrams, like a lot of us, are pissed off. Desperate and seething, this is an irresistible, frenzied purge from a band refusing to give, finding its way in rock and heavy libraries next to Converge, Cave In, Helmet or Basement. Watch their latest videos for Glass House and White Walls.

Abrams will fly overseas for their first-ever UK tour this spring, including an anticipated appearance at Desertfest London:
16.05 - London, UK @ Desertfest London
17.05 - Bridgwater, UK @ Cobblestones w/ Hashtronaut
18.05 - Bournemouth, UK @ Bear Cave w/ Solace and Midhaven
19.05 - Bristol, UK @ The Gryphon w/ High Desert Queen

Abrams blast forth a cathartic mix of driving rhythms, soaring vocals and dreamy ambiance. Fusing melody and dissonance, guitarist/vocalist Zach Amster, bassist/vocalist Taylor Iversen, drummer Ryan DeWitt and guitarist Graham Zander wield elements of heavy rock, shoegaze, grunge and hardcore with ease and fluency, crafting a blend that's bittersweet and familiar while urgently gazing forward.

Hailed as “one of the most musically diverse and emotionally impactful bands in the scene" by Distorted Sound Magazine, the Denver band's captivating approach finds them sharing terrain with the likes of Torche, Cave In and Converge, while their command of chunky, hooky riffs recalls alt-rock icons Hum and Quicksand, though this swirling amalgam of influences isn't the totality of Abrams. Having shared the stage with Dozer, Unsane, KEN mode, King Buffalo, Khemmis and Emma Ruth Rundle, the foursome has always strived to deliver memorable live shows.

A spearhead of the Denver rock scene, Abrams joined the ranks of tastemaker label Blues Funeral Recordings in 2024 for the release of their cornerstone album Blue City. Recorded and produced by Kurt Ballou (Converge, High On Fire), it saw their genre-defying heaviness and perfect melodic songcraft meld seamlessly into what Metal Hammer Magazine described as "an upswell of positivity in the face of frustration that’s sure to shake you from your existential slumber". Their new album Loon will arrive on April 17th, 2026 on Blues Funeral Recordings.
