Record Label: Where It'S At Style: Rock

With admirable economy of purpose Shrag have released 10 songs of precise pop over five 7' singles released by 'Where It's At Is Where You Are.' These songs signalled their intention to shimmy, stagger and storm balconies everywhere. 'Shrag' by Shrag is a Record Label: Where Its At Style: Indie-Pop

SHRAG will be releasing their hotly anticipated third album "Canines" via Fortuna POP! in July. Recorded at Gargleblast Studios with producer Andy Miller (LIFE WITHOUT BUILDINGS, MOGWAI, SONS AND DAUGHTERS), "Canines" is a visceral pop record bristling with urgency, melody, and danger, and is the sound of a band fully in their stride. "Canines" is a fiercely idiosyncratic record which stalks new territory for SHRAG; in its counter-intuitive journey from the feedback-drenched fury of album opener ,Tears of a Landlord" to the bittersweet lushness of closing paean ,Jane with Dumbbells", "Canines" interrogates structures, of the body, the mind, and the city. Suffused with bones, skin, and inappropriate desires, the album's first single ,Tendons in the Night" is a voyeuristic ode to the estimable pursuit of gymnastic perfection, whilst the second, ,Show us your Canines", is a blood-heavy exhortation against martyrdom and for movement, distilling the urgency and compulsion which lends the tone to the record as a whole. The glam-rock nonchalance of sun-soaked stomper ,Devastating Bones" gives way to the claustrophobia and menace of the family curse threading its way through ,That"s Static!", and the heady impulsivity and rush of ,On the Spines of Old Cathedrals" and ,You're the Shout" are offset against the elegant defiance of ,Chasing Consummations" and ,Flinching at Forever", where the band insist on a potent celebration of their own sense of awkwardness and fear. "Canines" follows up 2009"s self-titled debut album, and 2010's "Life! Death! Prizes!", both of which were mixed by legendary producer (and MORRISSEY drummer) Woodie Taylor, fresh from his success with LOVE IS ALL and VERONICA FALLS Vinyl, LP, Album
