The Cribs are back and on blistering form, brandishing their brand new eighth album, Night Network. The selfproduced 12track album was recorded at the Foo Fighters Studio 606 in Los Angeles in the springsummer of 2019. Having released their Steve Albini engineered album, 247 Rock Star Shit ndash their fourth consecutive UK top 10 album in August 2017 the multiple Q and NME Award winning band almost immediately parted company with their long time UK management and found themselves stuck in what Gary describes as a legal morass , unable to record or release new music, so touring wasnt an option either. That meant 18 months of fallow ndash heartbreaking stuff for a band whove known nothing else in their adult lives. At one point we were actually so disillusioned with what had happened, we didnt even know if we wanted to get back into the band anymore, says Ryan. Fast forward 3 years and Night Network is as fresh, cathartic and vital as anything theyve ever put out. Theres no weariness, no bitterness, just a clear desire to get back to doing what they do best ndash that unique blend of bittersweet melody, brutal lyrical honesty and riffs for days. The Cribs Cassette is available for home delivery from Vinyl Records London, only £8 +P&P
