Here’s another band that’s come out of nowhere to be one of the most important in your life. Reports from people who’ve seen Crushed Beaks live are consistently hyperbolic, and the recording of the latest track lives up to visceral, thrilling show. There have been 4 demos floating around for a while, but Sun Dogs takes the melody and beauty established in those and adds in the kind of depth last seen in The Horrors’ Still Life. The fact that they’re from London only serves to make all of us who aren’t dwelling in the capital increasingly jealous, and expect a spike in megabus journeys whenever they’re playing at some dive in Hoxton. Bloody Hoxton.
