The Hermit Crabs in bullet points!
Stupid bloody Wordpress just managed to lose my post, so this is a rather more brief version.
- The Hermit Crabs are a band from Glasgow who are making indie pop in the purest sense.
- Song has a timeless quality that would feel at home in the 60s or on a Heavenly record.
- Unlike many indie pop bands, this doesn’t sound lo-fi at all. All perfectly constructed.
- The vocals hold it all together perfectly. Gentle throughout, but never sweet enough to be sickly.
- Uses a fadeout (spawn of the devil). Will forgive as it’s meant to be last song on record.
- I think there was a bad joke in here somewhere too, but it escapes me now.
- Just download the damn song.
The Correspondence Course EP was released back in December by Matinée Recordings.
