Scumbag Philosopher
Deadpan chants over spiky guitar and incessent drum bashing, one thing is for certain, this tune gets in your head and stays there.
Grant Madden's New Order-esque drawl contrasts with the softer, obscured vocals of drummer Anne Reekie to create a catchy and confident single.
At first listen, God is Dead sounds like a song designed to get the hipster crowd excited, but this is a definite grower with a potentially massive fan base.
The post-punk misfits from Norwich have a busy summer ahead of them.
Check Scumbag Philosopher out supporting The Fall, at Glade Festival 2011 or later in the year when their own 'It Means Nothing So It Means Nothing UK Tour' kicks off.
