LYRICS
Panic stations, it feels like vertigo
Might be misreading it but even so
Did you ever notice that idea start to grow?
Misinformation on the radio

I don't like it but you reap what you sow
So misleading with that puppet show
My advice is to forget what you're told
Shout and kick and scream until our blood runs cold

Nothing to prove nothing to lose
And if you take that like you're on the outside looking in

Give me something with meaning
And I will show you something to believe in
But if you just try and deceive me or mislead me
You better run before the claws come out

Hazy illusions are clouding up the sky
All those visions leave you asking why
My intention is to live and let live
Give everything you've got till you've got nothing to give

Nothing to prove nothing to lose
And if you take that like you're on the outside looking in

Give me something with meaning
And I will show you something to believe in

But if you just try and deceive me all the lies that you hear blurring out your TV
It is your mission to heal division so go and rally all the people who will listen

North Wales Psychedelic rock band 'Holy Coves' return with a brand new single 'Desert Storm' which is set for release on 29th of April via prolific North Wales Label 'Yr Wyddfa Records'.

Dropping swiftly into the slip-stream and following on from the successful 'The Hurt Within' which was released last month, 'Desert Storm' really sets the psych mood with droney riffs, hazy vocals on an epic musical landscape.

Lead by Welsh Singer-Songwriter Scott Marsden, 'Holy Coves' find themselves crossing an unseen threshold on a fantastical new journey where new psych-hazed material spells an exciting new era for the collective.

Through long time friend and Producer David Wrench, 'Holy Coves' were put in touch with Texan Producer Erik Wofford (The Black Angels / Explosions In The Sky) and have built quite a magical working relationship, one where Wofford found himself on Mixing and Mastering duties for the material and certainly contributes to their new sound.

From the dreams of 100% is a midnight drive to the club that will wash away your panic and pain. Using what they know best in a sound both intimate and refreshing, which only the synths and beats of Chloe Blackwood (Cannon), Grace Stevenson (Rebel Yell) combined with the voice of Lena Molnar (Bloodletter) can deliver. One to keep you moving without looking back. Fresh off the pot for their new album, Clear Visions is set to wipe the dust off your eyes with Abandon. 

First single from the forth coming debut album CLEAR VISIONS out soon on It Records

100% - Abandon

Led by enigmatic songwriter Rowan Sandle, Crake is driven by her endless curiosity. Armed with her gently cracking vocal, and inspiration from writers like Shirley Jackson and Nan Shepherd, she sings of crinoids, slime mould and pussy willow. When they supported Buck Meek at Brudenell Social Club, Buck found himself so beguiled by Sandle and her band that he invited them to support Big Thief on their UK and EU tour in 2019. Crake duly obliged and have been building towards their debut full-length ever since. 

Much of the forthcoming album revolves around the death of Sandle’s friend Anna, who died in Syria after being hit by a Turkish air strike. Anna was working for a woman’s liberation group in the 
war-stricken country when the tragedy took place. ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ explores the grief that followed and the lessons learnt from dealing with such a significant loss. 

Sandle does, however, find space to explore more themes alongside this grief, such as cruelty and queer nature. On lead single ‘Winter’s Song’ she acknowledges the cruelty and coldness that exists within us all, and questions how we can continue to grow and love whilst remaining true to that. 

Speaking about the track, she said: “Winter’s Song is about the absolute mundane beauty of being fallible. It's a true story, I saw the moon rise but swore it was the sun setting. I think about this line a lot: “keep a little coldness in you, just wear it soft and gentle” Be soft, be kind, be honest. Being unremarkable has its own beauty.” 

Sandle’s love for queer nature is so fervent that it makes the experience of listening to Crake akin to that of stumbling on an entirely new world. Sandle believes that life isn’t as black and white as we’ve been taught, and thinks nature holds the key to revealing the true nature of human experience. The appearances of things like slime mould - single-celled organisms that form a single body when in search of food  - brittle starfish - a type of starfish whose awareness isn’t concentrated in one place - and other such oddities furnish ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ with a folklore all of its own. 

‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ will send you down multiple rabbit holes and you’ll emerge from each with a newfound appreciation for the complexities of the world. Perhaps even more important than this though is the humanity that lies at the very heart of this debut full-length. Whether it’s in the sensitivity in how she portrays the loss of her friend, the depiction of our most base instincts - namely cruelty, passion and love - or the 
sincere, pure quality of the songwriting itself, it’s this that makes ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ essential, and 
invaluable listening. 

“A pensive, dejected moment of magic, but magic nonetheless” Gold Flake Paint
“Charming and intimate alt-folk” Dork
“The guitars sizzle like lightning bolts striking against an otherwise clear sky, while Sandle’s distinct, hoarse vocal plays like another instrument” Secret Meeting
“In a world of cynics, [Crake] make you believe anything might still be possible” For The Rabbits

Promises


Late night
Blue light
Says he’s cool with it
Alright

Smile fixed
Self-control
Loses more
Than he knows

Cryptid cuck
Out of luck
Say you’re fine
Say too much
Cryptid cuck
No class
Let it happen
Let it pass

She’s gone
He waits
Calls it love
Calls it fate

Modern man
Hands tied loose
Freedom’s just
Something you lose

Cryptid cuck
Out of luck
Anything
No disgust
Cryptid cuck
Stand back
Clap polite
Fade to black




Cryptid cuck
Out of luck
No spine
Just trust
Cryptid cuck
No shame
Say her name
Not your name

Cryptid cuck
Out of luck
No spine
Just trust
Cryptid cuck
No shame
Say her name
Not your name
