Always Judge A Record By Its Cover

Deaf's 'The Deaf EP' impressed me from the very start, a collection of five deftly crafted songs that veer from thoughtful elegance to something more muscular and biting. At times they sound like a classic indie band from a time before the age of the internet, before the world became saturated and obese. There's real sophistication in the arrangements, alongside expressive vocals, some terrific guitar/bass interplay, you get rolling drums, ambient intros and just the right amount of synth augmentation. All five tracks stride along confidently and are equally as good as each other. A really terrific debut, I can't wait to hear more. Top Tracks:   Dead End, Shards,Truancy.
