Night Network may not be the 12 tracks which would shake the person who doesn’t like The Cribs out of their most curious position. But it is 12 more assertions of greatness from a band who you really should like

The Jarman brothers are having fun. They might be living miles apart but when they get back together, the chemistry and will are still there to create great, indie-pop music

It could well be that The Cribs are victims of their own legacy, when they’ve set such a high bar with previous releases, sometimes it’s hard to maintain that consistency. We should just be thankful that the band managed to overcome a really crap time and still had the hunger to continue producing music
