Anyway, relax. There’s no Gallagher wannabes or northern Bon Jovis here, so close your slack jaws and listen good. There have, without question, been better named bands than Crestfallen, and indeed better bands full stop, but this is how Elbow imagine they sound. Pity Elbow are oblivious to their own obvious shitness, really - the results could be rather decent.
So over four untitled tracks of this untitled demo, Crestfallen are by turns heartfelt, a little jangly, emotional and just slightly moving. Whether they fight out of Manchester’s dangerously uncreative void remains to be seen, but it should be interesting to watch them try – it’s a deserving cause.
