The Snuts

W.L.

NOT INTERESTING

Just listen to an average 2010s indie rock band for the same type of sound. There are 8000 bands that sound exactly like this. The Snuts need to find an identity that is as unique as their name.

For a new, Scottish band that Parlophone themselves tipped to look out for this year (Which will bank well in the UK Album Chart), their debut album W.L. has finally arrived...And I was disappointed.

W.L.'s main problem is it ticks every indie cliché trickery you may as have heard countless times.
What makes new bands like Vistas, The Magic Gang and Sea Girls more successful is their fresh and relevant indie vibes; even veterans like Biffy Clyro and Maximo Park have turned up a recent, ... read more

Dude, this is borking as fuck. Hate doing this to Scots but it’s like advert music that 15 yo would make. Fuck, this is also so predictable musically. Just using every cliche used by every other arctic monkey copycats

The Scottish band presents an honest record full of catchy rhythms and amazing lyrics is one of those records I listen on repeat over and over again.

Take all of the boring indie pop tracks of all fifa soundtracks from the last decade, and mix it with a random train album, boom you've got this with a few exceptions like Glasgow, that thing slaps.

This album gives me such 'Guitar Hero' vibes.

while this was bad it was simultaneously boring, i got a discord call half way through listening to this and it was more interesting.

heard a 1000 times. the voice of the singer is horrific. he sings like a duck

might be missing a kick for indie rock genre, although i can still find it among Always and Elephants; but as a whole, it is absolutely magnificient piece of comfort, like, every song of it. Toned but charming, calm.
Not an album of the year, but might be the one I actually listened the most to.
