I guess all boats look that way in choppy waters but maybe this Dublin act are referring to its human cargo. Who knows, perhaps the saturday premiership run has taken its toll or maybe they just read the book. Whatever the inspiration it has produced a ramshakle beaut in ‘Cabin Fever’ that is reminiscent of something that Dead Elvis might have released out of Parnell street way back when. I’m thinking Wormhole, the Idiots and Sunbear at their most frenzied. You may also hear Sonic Youth but they haven’t been this fearless for quite a while. Missed the album, ‘Concrete Canyons’ – recorded by Northstation’s Steve Fanagan in Inchicore over 2 days – this is taken from on its release last year but am making up for it now. A superior way to shake the sleep from your eye. KD
