On the title track and opening song of its fourth album, Hawk Nelson urges its listeners to “Live Life Loud.” That sentiment, founding member Daniel Biro notes, is “as Hawk Nelson as Hawk Nelson gets.”
It’s not just a matter of volume, mind you; it’s a philosophy. The Hawk Nelson we hear on Live Life Loud knows how to do just that — How to live life at the extreme that the title suggests is embracing all of life, accepting and even celebrating a little pain and darkness and finding a way to let it enrich life.
From the high-octane anthems “Never Enough,” “Eggshells” and “Alive” to the melancholy “The Final Toast,” “Lest We Forget” the string-laden “The Meaning of Life” and the adapted hymn “‘Tis So Sweet” the Hawk Nelson we hear is a bit more serious but also richer and more complete, a group that’s comfortably “growing up,” but without losing the brash spirit of punk rock that’s fueled its music during the past seven years.
“It’s funny,” Biro acknowledges, “because contrary to the title of Live Life Loud, there are more acoustic songs on this album and more deep issues. I don’t know if it’s part of maturity or being four albums in, but we’re definitely at a point where we can have fun — a lot of fun — but still go places that are a bit more serious.”
And by doing that, Biro and his mates – singer-frontman Jason Dunn, guitarist Jonathan Steingard and drummer Justin Brenner — have also crafted their most accomplished album yet, an 11-song set that sweeps from the manic to the mellow and all points in between.
