The indie four-piece from Whitburn, halfway between Glasgow and Edinburgh, built up a devoted fanbase through relentless touring and a series of rowdy singles. #Ryley walker course in fable review series#
Now their debut album arrives, 13 tracks custom built for singing along while punching the air, and they’ll be hoping their rescheduled autumn tour - including three sold-out gigs at Glasgow Barrowland - goes ahead. WL starts unexpectedly with the low-key Top Deck before The Snuts hit their stride with the anthemic Always, driven by a nagging guitar riff, and the catchy All Your Friends. Somebody Loves You is a love song that strays towards boyband territory, while Boardwalk is acoustic, Don’t Forget It (Punk) is aggressive, Coffee & Cigarettes as experimental as they get and last track Sing For Your Supper heads towards power ballad territory. The Snuts are not reinventing the indie wheel, with influences ranging from Oasis to the Libertines, Arctic Monkeys and The Courteeners, but their own personality always comes through. In their world it’s forever 2007, a heaving crowd packed tightly at the now demolished London Astoria, the band playing on amid a hail of plastic beer glasses, crowd surfers and stage divers.Īt a time when we’ve been missing out on gigs for more than a year, W.L.
will provide their fans with a soundtrack for counting down the days until the thrill of live music returns. The idea of a live album recorded during the pandemic, when public performance remains impossible, might seem nonsensical. #Ryley walker course in fable review series#.
