... a dark, grungy anthem straight out of the 1990s Seattle playbook.
The band is just a duo, but the sounds they have given me the idea that this is a quintet; it's that big. "Wasted" has lots to shout about, with some soaring shoegaze-like guitars with screeching angular moments all wrapped in this dark velvety sheen.
With BBC Introducing already picking up on them, we feel like the beginning is well underway, and the next phase could easily define their career. Just two songs in and they're already solidly building a fanbase, watch out.
