And Belfast’s Morning Claws round off what is a glorious triumvirate containing themselves, Candy Claws and Gospel Claws. Funny how all three don’t sound in least bit sound sharp, each supplying a pampering for aural cavities not felt since ear muffs were dispensed with (owing to their bulky and slightly nerd like aesthetics). The Claws in this case got Oppenheimer’s (now sadly defunct) Rocky O’Reilly in to produce their first born and it sounds like a perfect match going by the electro tinged ‘Slack Magic’. The 5-piece have a couple of Irish dates planned including a visit to Whelan’s next month. Yet more kindle for the current Northern blaze. KD
