The Essex/London outfit have returned with the new single ‘Can’t See The Light’. Released via A Turntable Friend Records and, produced by The Meerkats, it will be taken from their upcoming album ‘Electric Music’ (released July 3rd).
A harrowing dystopian landscape is ignited from the discontent guitars and Membranes-esque bass throb. Although dank and darkly psychedelic, it has flourishes of Johnny Marr’s solo career. The tense melancholic mood builds towards an explosive crescendo but, in the same way Mark E Smith could, offers small nuggets of pop hooks to keep you coming back again and again.
So often, The Wolfhounds are casually written off as a band from the C86 era. ‘Can’t See The Light’ is the ultimate proof that, they are band for all ages, especially now.
