Our Take

CROWS' latest offering, "Ready When You Are," is the musical equivalent of an adrenaline-fueled rollercoaster ride through a haunted funfair. With their raucous guitars, pounding drums, and angst-ridden lyrics, this London-based band serves up a heaping plate of punk-infused indie rock that is sure to leave listeners with a serious case of whiplash.

From the opening track, "Silver Tongues," which kicks off with a frenetic blast of distorted riffs and feverish vocals, to the closing notes of the haunting ballad, "Dying in the Subtlety," CROWS take listeners on a wild and unpredictable journey. The band effortlessly blends elements of post-punk, grunge, and shoegaze to create a sound that is uniquely their own.

Lead singer James Cox's gravelly vocals are the perfect complement to the band's raw and abrasive sound, while the tight musicianship of the rest of the band members provides a solid backbone for the album’s frenetic energy. Tracks like "Chain of Being" and "Wednesday's Child" showcase the band's ability to craft infectious hooks and memorable melodies.

While "Ready When You Are" may not reinvent the wheel in terms of musical innovation, CROWS' commitment to their sound and their undeniable energy make this album a must-listen for fans of gritty, unapologetic rock and roll. So grab your leather jacket, crank up the volume, and get ready to dive headfirst into the chaotic world of CROWS.

About the artist

The Crows

CROWS is the type of band that makes you want to throw on your leather jacket, grab a pint, and head to a dingy club for a night of chaotic energy and blistering riffs. Hailing from London, this four-piece outfit combines elements of post-punk, grunge, and shoegaze to create a sound that is at once familiar and completely fresh. With their debut album "Silver Tongues" released in 2019, CROWS established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the UK music scene. The album is a raw, unapologetic collection of songs that tackle everything from personal struggles to social commentary with an intensity that is impossible to ignore. Frontman James Cox's gravelly vocals are the perfect match for the band's dark, brooding sound, while the rest of the band (Steve Goddard on guitar, Jith Amarasinghe on bass, and Sam Lister on drums) provide a relentless sonic backdrop that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Live, CROWS are a sight to behold. Their energy is infectious, their chemistry undeniable, and their ability to captivate an audience unparalleled. Whether they're playing to a crowd of ten or ten thousand, CROWS give it their all, and it's impossible not to get swept up in the whirlwind of emotion and noise. In a music industry that often feels saturated with cookie-cutter bands and manufactured personas, CROWS stand out as a breath of fresh air. They're not interested in playing by the rules or pandering to trends – they're here to make music that speaks to the soul and moves the body. And for that, we salute them.
