This song is a tasty piece of shoe-gaze, thick with pea-soup atmosphere and a a jangly and driving atmosphere softened by the underwater fuzz of a genre I've also heard called miasma (think The Jesus and Mary Chain and My Bloody Valentine).
The Cribs is slightly more recently founded than the aforementioned bands (2001), but benefits from some help by an old hand. The group benefits from a continued collaboration with Sonic Youth co-founder Lee Ranaldo.
It's cool and shiny stuff, this song, a melodious soundscape that make settling and existential confusion seem rife with possibilities.
