S.C.U.M. got their name from Valerie Solanas’ manifesto (crazy bitch who shot Andy Warhol), they’ve already played at the hippest of hip festivals (All Tomorrow’s Parties) and they seem to spend an awful lot of time thinking about their haircuts. Yes, these guys are every hipster’s dream.
“Again Into Eyes” drowns in a sea of keyboards and wavering guitars and is reminiscent of Joy Division, Editors and Arcade Fire. Unfortunately they are nowhere as good as any of those bands and would rather check their hair once again in the mirror rather than making sure their songs don’t overdose on drama. Total snoozefest!
Score: 4 out of 10
