The Clouds chronology

Loot is the second extended play by Australian rock band The Clouds. Released in April 1991, the EP peaked at number 22 on the ARIA charts.

Reception[edit]

In The Sell-In, Craig Mathieson said the EP was, "tough, alluring and sexy. The lead cut, Phillis's "Soul Eater", was seditious ear candy and it converted not only Triple J to Clouds but also made inroads at commercial FM stations." He also noted that new guitarist Dave Easton had "hardened up" the band with his aggressive playing.^[1]
