  • “We Need Love” by Inches From Sin: A Call for Compassion

    Illuminating the Shadows of Our Time Through Music

     

    The music video “We Need Love” by Inches From Sin emerges as a poignant artistic response to the turbulence and darkness enveloping our modern world. In a time when headlines are saturated with stories of war, the taking of land, the tragic loss of innocent children, and the persistence of police brutality, this video dares to hold a mirror to global reality. It does not flinch from highlighting the grim realities—senseless bombings, the fracturing of cultures, the rising tide of distrust toward governments and media, and, perhaps most heartbreakingly, the festering hate that divides humanity. Protests, more widespread and impassioned than seen in living memory, underscore the desperate need for change.

    Against this backdrop of crisis and confusion, “We Need Love” offers a message of urgent hope. The video insists that love is not a luxury or a fleeting sentiment, but a vital force for healing. “We need love now more than ever. Without love we have nothing,” the narrative declares, capturing the spirit of a generation yearning for connection, empathy, and understanding.

  • Released on August 26th, 2025, the music video follows the album “We Need Love,” unveiled on August 12th, 2025, by Bongo Boy Records. The close timing of these releases is no accident—the song and its visual companion are designed to resonate together, amplifying a chorus that transcends musical boundaries to become a rallying cry for humanity.

    Inches From Sin’s artistry lies in their fearless storytelling. Through evocative imagery and powerful lyrics, the video weaves together scenes that span continents and struggles, reminding viewers that the battles for justice, dignity, and peace are shared. The visual narrative is unflinching, yet it is underscored by a fundamental belief: that love is the only antidote to the darkness that threatens to overwhelm us.

     

    The release of “We Need Love” serves as both a wake-up call and a balm. It urges us to confront the harsh truths of our age, but it also calls forth the best in us—compassion, solidarity, and hope. As the music swells and images flash by, listeners and viewers are invited not only to witness the pain of the world, but to become participants in its healing.

    With its debut, “We Need Love” by Inches From Sin stands as more than a song or a music video; it is a movement, a message, and a manifestation of the belief that in the face of overwhelming darkness, love remains our greatest light.

  • Inches From Sin embraces a hybrid style on the playful “Enoch”. Full of a tremendous passion, the fire they sing with feels outright potent. Stylistically Inches From Sin draws from elements of country rock, the blues, gospel, folk, and a southern fried rock. By merging all of these into a singular, coherent whole Inches From Sin delivers something straight from the heart. Impressive chops dominate the whole of the album while track opt for a unique physically, letting the sheer massive sound wash over everything. Lyrically the songs focus upon relationships, loves gained and lost, and all the other elements that come from a life lived to the absolute fullest.

  • “Listen To Me” starts things off on a high note, letting the vocals that introduce the piece simply burst into full bloom with electronics that just won’t quit. On “These Girls (feat. Gar Francis)” incorporates dance and funk into an infectious groove. Things slow down on the reflective “They Came From Mars (feat. Cadillac Blue)”. Fantastic flows with incredible poignant insight are the hard truths of “Truth Be Told (feat. Jordan O’Donnell)”. Going for a hint of giddiness is the carefree, sun-drenched “Make Up Your Mind”. A big band spirit ties together the rollicking “Why Don’t We Get Married”. “Broken Hearted” ends things off on a triumphant note, letting the glowing organ give it a classic rock sound.

I am really curious, given the name of the band, is this a simple love song or do the singers have some darker nefarious purpose in mind for the person they are encouraging to make up their mind?"

  • REVIEW CRANKIT-UP MAGAZINE

    Inches From Sin review By Rusty | Inches From Sin | Bridgewater Triangle. "Here is an above-the-grain rock duo that, like in their videos shot around beaches and sea air, bring back a loving, peaceful set of feelings. I could picture sipping on a cool drink mixed with pineapple, while we all enjoy the small fire and peace, stillness. A groove, and unique sound with tints even of some of the greats of Motown, I beg you to not FEEL this music. It is gonna happen and you will probably be all smiles. Classy and likely not to raise waves of street punkery and random misdeeds, this is love music. Overall, I edge most of the cropped and over-the-top aside for this duo to receive a Six FlashBombs." - Review by Crankit-Up Magazine.

  • REVIEW NOR'EASTER MAGAZINE

    Inches From Sin, featuring the talents of Robert Brewer and Karen Holloway, give it up with their track, "Murder" that has a cool retro R&B sound that takes the listener back in time. The individual solos and harmonies are spot on and done to perfection! The line, "I smell perfume and it ain't mine" sums it all up! 

    "Out of Reach",  a funky blues based number that tells a story that has implications about what is happening in our country today. Love the retro guitar picking! UP FRONT & COOL! 

    "Move On", is a fun-sounding track that rocks you out from the door. Robert Brewer's vocals are strong and Karen Holloway adds nice harmonies as a compliment. The guitar's are talking BIGTIME!  Review by Michael McKenna | Nor'easter Entertainment Magazine
