CRICKETS New Single “Elastic”

"A thumping new reprisal of toxic masculinity"

Rolling Stone

S/T Debut Album Out 7/17 on Muddguts

     

The band’s sound is an exploration of minimalism, a celebration of restraint, a rant of queer prose set to a backdrop barrage of guitar, synthesizer and drum machine. Sounding like the collision of ESG, Suicide, and The Flying Lizards—or the distant, basement-funk cousin to Fever Ray—CRICKETS is gloriously and purposefully minimal.
