Those Damn Crows

There’s a song on God Shaped Hole, the fourth album from powerhouse UK rock band Those Damn Crows, that sums up everything about them. The track is called No Surrender and it pulses with defiance and intent. “If you want to achieve, you’ve got to make them believe,” sings TDC frontman Shane Greenhall over pounding, heavy riffs and a barrage of drums. Those sentiments are drawn from bitter experience, but like all the best Those Damn Crows songs, it finds positivity in the struggle.

At a time when rock music is constantly (and incorrectly) written off, Those Damn Crows prove it’s more alive than it has ever been. God Shaped Hole is the sound of a band at the very peak of their powers – but one who are determined to keep building on their achievements.
