BLOUS3 · Tune In
BLOUS3 is a Sacramento art-punk and noise-rock band formed during the COVID period, when Riley Partanen (bass) and Jacob Waite (drums, later guitar) started a project and recruited guitarist Julian Hall; drummer Cole Apperson (also of Mastoids) is the newest member. Working in noise, distortion, sound collage, and shifting tempos while keeping a clear structure, they have built a catalog including "Phantom Tooth" and "Interdenominational Picnic" (2021), "Illusion of Traffic" (2023), and their third album Synchronized Swimming (October 2024), recorded by Jack Shirley at Atomic Garden and issued via Cherub Dream Records.
