Our Worth A Listen Track This Week Comes From JAWS

Birmingham indie-outfit, JAWS, released their full-length sophomore album ‘SimplicIty’ on November 4. ‘Simplicity’ is JAWS first outing since their frenzied debut LP ‘Be Slowly’ in 2014. Opting for a short period of silence to re-calibrate, the band resurfaced with hazy new single ‘What We Haven’t Got Yet’. Band members Connor Schofield (vocals, guitar), Alex Hudson (guitar) and Eddy Geach (drums) formed in Birmingham in 2012, they were identified as being part of the Digbeth B-Town scene and were part of a group of bands from the Midlands that won wider acclaim. Their debut record ‘Be Slowly’ was produced by Oliver Horton (Swim Deep, Foals, Cymbals) and saw the band tour alongside Peace and Spector. In 2015 JAWS shared ‘Bad Company’ via Huw Stephens Radio 1 show. Reformed and re-energised the band are closing in with a second full-length release ‘Simplicity’ which was released in November. We have chosen ‘What We Haven’t Got Yet’ from the album to be our worth a listen track this week.
‘What We Haven’t Got Yet’ gives us a crisp fresh pristine track that delivers a forceful blow of bright juicy indie and raw edgy rock. Piercing guitar riffs cut through the track with chilling shrill and razor sharp laceration while the crashing pounding drums pummel and strike giving the track hard hitting energy. This anthemic song has an infectious sing along chorus which is set to have any live audience bellowing out in no time and intense frenzy causing energy that is mosh worthy and manic. Schofield’s vocals cool the track down with chilled velvety tones and smooth qualities giving silky ripple-less textures and a fresh vibe to the track. Jaws have stepped things up with this album and I would highly recommend giving the entire ‘Simplicity’ album a spin.
