The flipside to "Breakdown", "Horror Shorts" is the best kind of warm and gooey grunge. The hash brownie to the A-side's crumblier choc-chip cookie. On this one, Crushed Beaks warn us repeatedly not to turn into people we don't know, which with the weekend approaching is a way bigger challenge than you need. I mean, how many of you would recognise yourselves at 2am on a Friday night? Being able to totally disassociate that blue WKD and tequila shot guzzling monster from your regular self is sort of crucial to mental wellbeing, but if you were forced to face it, then we reckon it would definitely be classed as "horror", yes. So, umm, pub later yeah?"Breakdown" is out on 5th November on ASL Records and Crushed Beaks will be playing an instore at Rough Trade East on November 2nd.
