Partly because they had to fit the exercise around working fulltime jobs, but also because of the freedom that was afforded to them around this specific project, which takes the post-punk four piece’s historically adrenaline-fuelled sound into fresh territory. Though the band’s punk spirit remains intact, sonically, they’re more refined and cohesive than ever; it’s the most mature Crows have ever sounded, without compromising any of their intrinsic grit. Following 2022's 'Beware Believers' and their 2019 debut 'Silver Tongues', 'Reason Enough' lands September 27th 2024 via Bad Vibrations. For the occasion, James Cox (vocals), Steve Goddard (guitar), Jith Amarasinghe (bass) and Sam Lister (drums), swapped their usual rehearsal space, a small studio in Homerton, East London, for the cavernous walls of a “weird little studio” – as Goddard puts it – in Stroud, Gloucestershire. More specifically, a former Catholic church and convent where the band parked themselves up in the crypt, which was more  conducive to inspiring the foundations for ‘Reason Enough’. “Having a more relaxed approach this time around meant we could explore different stuff,” Goddard says. “We don’t want to sound the same as we did before – this is our third album, we have to move on. And so we fucked around a bit more.” Armed with dozens of ideas, they returned to London in a bid to finesse them all alongside Mercury Prize-nominated producer and master of the polished indie record Andy Savours (Black County, New Road, My Bloody Valentine). The result: a concise, 10-track album which goes a long way to show Crows’ sonic versatility. It’s more melodic work than what Crows have previously done, “rather than being all-out punk”, as Goddard puts it. “It feels less lo-fi, cleaner and more well-rounded as a result,” Cox adds. Lyrically, Cox drew heavily from a difficult year, both personally and in terms of facing up to a heavygoing news cycle. “I went pretty unhappy with the lyrics and vocals,” he says. “I wanted to moan a bit. If the last album was angrier, this one is definitely sadder.” Indeed, a general sense of malaise, isolation, unease and a desire for growth in spite of it all permeate ‘Reason Enough’ – an album which strikes a satisfying balance between existentialism, soulsearching, and a discerning brand of indie-rock: “We’re doing the same thing, but a lot better.

Powered by their wild live parties and rooted in the sounds of mutant disco, post-punk and experimental electronics, the London-based trio’s third LP is released via Bad Vibrations. Arriving following 2019’s ‘Proper Music’ and 2020’s ‘More More More’, ‘Behavioural Sink Delirium’ was recorded and produced by Eddie Stevens (Zero7, Moloko, Róisín Murphy) in his Fulham studio. “We locked ourselves away for ten days and recorded 30 hours of music, all played live in one room, and only edited to create arrangements”, MADMADMAD recall. The result of those sessions is nine unhinged techno-dystopian freak-outs that mark the trio out as a truly singular group. ‘Behavioural Sink Delirium’ takes its name and inspiration from the 1968-70 ‘Universe 25’ experiment by American ethologist John B. Calhoun, looking at the behavioural effects of population growth in a ‘rodent utopia’. During the studies, a perfect space was built for a colony of 3,000 mice to thrive in, with constant food and water supplies, cosy apartments and no outside threats or predators. Starting with 4 females and 4 males, the population grew rapidly before capping at a number of 2,200. At this point, a living nightmare ensued, filled with antisocial and violent mice as the utopic conditions began to collapse. The mice formed violent cliques and social hierarchies, cannibalism started becoming common practice and the population started plummeting to eventual extinction. Calhoun coined this tipping-point the “behavioural sink” effect, and it’s this state of societal breakdown that the trio tap into on the record. “You can easily see the link with our species in terms of overpopulation, but also with the Internet medium or ‘metaverse’ and its overproduction of data, causing tremendous societal, mental and environmental shifts. What was supposed to cater for most of our needs has also turned on us. Delirium kinda states the air of it all, and the folly of the music.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide A :\u003cbr\u003eA Gin, No Tonic, Mannheim \/ Krautjerk \/ You See, You Do It Like This \/ Totes Amazeballs \/ It's A Cat\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide B :\u003cbr\u003eDeckchairs \/ Flute And The Hobo \/ Baggy Bag Bottoms \/ In The Garden of Mezcal\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Season of Mist - International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53442190246231,"sku":"P-159259-","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/6500\/8471\/files\/MADMADMAD-Behavioural-Sink-Delirium-LP-COLOURED-159259-1-1727162115.jpg?v=1778251433"},{"product_id":"baby-cool-infinity-baby-lp-1","title":"Baby Cool - Infinity Baby - LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eGrace Cuell writes songs as a way of making sense of the world around her. On Infinity Baby, her second album as Baby Cool, she takes a gentle look at what it means to be human as the pendulum swings between shadow and light. Where her debut Earthling on the Road to Self Love felt almost whimsical in its search for meaning, Infinity Baby is more grounded and honest. The songs move through desire, cynicism, devotion and surrender, sometimes defeat, but always circle back to a kind of hope. It’s a record about patterns: the ones we inherit, the ones we repeat, and the ones we choose to keep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorking alongside producer Samuel Joseph who has worked with the likes of King Gizzard, Family Jordan and more, the album was made in the hills of the Northern Rivers. Musically, Baby Cool continues to blur psychedelia, folk and kraut-pop, with the spaciousness of her natural surroundings ever-present in the songwriting and production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn “Mirage,” hope flickers against a world that feels broken. “Loop” sits with the strange repetition of daily life, walking the same road and expecting something to shift. “Everything” captures the exhaustion of trying to squeeze meaning from every moment, while “Devotion” unpacks the way we fall in love with ideas that exist mostly in our own minds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Sacred” steps away from romantic love and lands somewhere steadier, friendship as the deepest, most enduring form of connection. And at the heart of the record is “Infinity Baby,” a song rooted in a childhood fear of endlessness. Instead of resisting that fear, Cuell writes through it. The song feels like a small act of soothing for her younger self, and maybe for anyone else who has ever felt overwhelmed by the scale of it all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInfinity Baby doesn’t offer answers. It sits in the spin of things. And somewhere in that spin, it finds a quiet kind of acceptance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide A :\u003cbr\u003e1. Intro \/ 2. Mirage \/ 3. Loop \/ 4. Sky \/ 5.
