Three years after their debut album, Silver Tongues, the London-based Crows are coming back with the energetic followup in Beware Believers. Their post-punk is dark and gloomy but also fast as hell and very much dance-inducing.
No wonder that the album was released by Fuzz Club. There's everything that can make you excited for an album there: super catchy and melodic compositions, post-punk's direct way of saying what's wrong in our lives, the noise rock's buzzing guitars and very expressive vocalist. In some parts they sound like Third Sound, in other like The Horrors: they don't shy away from creating a real guitar-centered noise bliss while still focusing on the post-punk-like vibes in the way they compose their short but intense songs and the way James Cox leads the audience with his distinct voice. On this postponed (due to the pandemics) album, the artists show their frustration with the British politics and Brexit decision, a topic which today, in the shortly living information era, seems to be yesterday's news but in reality still negatively affects tons of areas of our lives, not only in UK.
The label's compact description of the album is "loud, cathartic and abrasive" while Cox adds that it "felt like a marathon, a real endurance test that’s been a long winding road...". But it's such a good thing they managed to get through the road as the album is truly one of the best ones within the genre this year, with instant hits like Only Time, Healing, and Meanwhile making their way into my personal playlists with ease.
Beware Believers costs 9 EUR (7 GBP).
