What People Are Saying

“‘Learn to love and celebrate’ - is one of the conclusions that can be drawn from the songs from Charades, a dynamic Dutch rocktrio. The band presents the type of indierock that is reminiscent of the 90’s. Nice melodic rocksongs with a glimmer of melancholy and tasteful divergent guitar parts. The band hits the right place 7 times on this record.

Just playing locally is not what this band deserves.”

— OOR, Willem Jongeneelen

“..the result is a record that is clearly an offspring from their previous EP’s, but they have clearly decreased the need to overwhelm the listener. The strong trio of Ice Cream, Far Gone and Camp Fire shows that the rocksongs on this record have more room to breath.

Every song on the record is typically Charades and with every three minutes their sound is growing more strong and confident.”

— LLUID, Jaap Smit (★★★★)

“This record counts eight songs that are written towards the essence of every song. Charades’ sound has clear roots in 90’s indierock with a nod towards Britpop. This results in tracks that are melodic and from time to time melancholic, immersive and inspiring, all supported by a crystal clear production.

This band’s sound should attract a broad audience and is suited for airplay on StuBru, 3FM or Kink FM.”

— Rockportaal, Jochem van der Steen

Will Charades play at my party in return for a crate of beer?

Unfortunately, beer does not pay for petrol and our bassist is gluten intolerant :(
