Cribs, The - In The Belly Of The Brazen Bull
Review by Christian Eaton
The Cribs' fifth studio album, "In The Belly Of The Brazen Bull," is a raucous and energetic record that showcases the band's signature blend of punk and indie rock. The album is a testament to the band's ability to evolve and experiment with their sound, while still staying true to their roots.
The opening track, "Glitters Like Gold," sets the tone for the album with its driving guitar riffs and catchy chorus. From there, the band takes listeners on a wild ride through tracks like "Come On, Be A No-One," "Anna," and "Jaded Youth," which all feature the band's trademark raw energy and infectious hooks.
The album also features several slower, more introspective tracks, such as "Back To The Bolthole" and "Stalagmites," which provide a nice contrast to the more upbeat songs. Throughout the album, the band's lyrics touch on themes of nostalgia, disillusionment, and the struggles of youth.
