Last month Crystal Antlers brought the ruckus to a quiet corner of Kings Cross when they played our clubnight. It was damn special and we’ve been basking in the memories ever since. Then came the news that their Chicago based label Touch and Go would be drastically downsizing its operations. There was a tornado sized sigh of relief that the Antlers would be able to get their record out before the label goes the way of everything we love. Here is a small taster of ‘Tentacles’ but show your (monetary) affection by ordering it here .

Their west coast wingmen Darker My Love were also scheduled to play that misty night but various travel issues meant they sadly had to cancel on us. They are the main NME Radar band his week which makes us happy because we like the feeling of constant approval. Through the dense and deep shrouding noise, vocals creep out like beams of Californian sunlight.
