Our album of the week this week is 5 from Welsh surf rockers Y Niwl.
I first came across these guys when I interviewed them at Latitude 2011 (was it REALLY that long ago?) Their performance on the Lake Stage confirmed that they’re a great live act too. You may recognise this song as one of the themes from BBC1’s Football Focus:
5 is very much in same vein as their earlier work. No enormous changes of direction, genre hopping or experimentation – just another album of doing what they do, very very well indeed. Roll on 6.
