Not, sadly, a cover of the Longpigs' lumbering Britpop classic, but a brooding, dark, swirling, upright spindle of drone rock gold from San Fransico that runs circles round and firmly wraps up your expectations. Sits quite comfortably alongside Manchester's abstract art-noise merchants The Longcut, and throws up hints of Echo & The Bunnymen, The Cure, Grandaddy, Sonic Youth, Slint and Mazzy Star across its three tracks. Brilliant.
