Attack the Sound, the Chicago-based collective known for conjuring a magical fusion of Chi-Pop—a self-crafted blend of jazz, soul, and indie R&B—is returning to the musical forefront with their much-anticipated EP, “Love Is War: Packed”. Released on February 14th, this project marks a glorious five-year celebration of their iconic track Love is War.
Five years ago, Attack the Sound shook the music sphere with their single Love is War, leaving an indelible mark on the indie R&B scene. Now, they reinvigorate this classic with a new EP that showcases their expansive growth as artists. This special anniversary edition, Love Is War: Packed, reinvents the original while embodying the essence of the Love is War narrative, making it a fine amalgamation of the familiar and the fresh.
“For the past five years, “Love is War” has been a defining part of our journey. This EP is our way of saying thank you to everyone who’s been with us since the beginning,” shares Davo Sounds, the visionary founder of Attack the Sound. “We’re bringing new energy to a classic and showing just how much we’ve grown as artists.”
The band has earned its stripes through electrifying performances at major festivals such as Taste of Chicago and NXNE, collaborated with musical maestros like Isaiah Sharkey and Taylor Bennett, and found its soulful symphony resonating across authentic platforms—even catching the applause of the NBA’s Chicago Bulls with a prime sync deal. Through these accolades, ATS has cemented its place among the upper echelons of Chi-Pop, proving that theirs is a rhythm capable of resonating far and wide.
“Love is War: Packed” not only reinterprets but elevates, intertwining nostalgia with innovation to craft a stunning audio tapestry sure to tug the heartstrings. From exclusive remixes to previously unreleased material, there’s something for both Indie R&B aficionados and new listeners to discover. The EP promises to be both an homage to their enduring legacy and a bold step forward in their musical evolution.
