Artist: The Cribs

Did nobody want to release a big, important video the same week that the Coachella lineup came out? Because there were no big, important videos this week. But there were some fun smaller ones, and we've got five of those below. Read More...

The Cribs will release their compilation/greatest hits album Payola on February 25, 2013 via Wichita Recordings. The Cribs have officially been at it for long enough to package some stuff they already released together and call it an album. That's okay. Because the video we have posted below is for "Leather Jacket Love Song", a tune the band recorded back in 2010 while Johnny Marr (The Smiths) was still a member. The Cribs' strength is one they've been honing since their 2004 self-titled debut up to last year's In The Belly Of The Brazen Bull: they [...]

Alfredo Arias Horas When Amor de Días released their first album Street Of The Love Of Days in Spring of 2011, they weren't presenting themselves as successors to either The Clientele or Pipas , but given that neither of those outfits have released anything new since Alasdair MacLean and Lupe Núñez-Fern&aacut e;ndez turned their attentions to it, it's not unreasonable to expect that the new project provide at least some of the elegant pop fix that fans of either outfit would have demanded from them otherwise.

A banda The Cribs acaba de divulgar o clipe da faixa Leather Jacket Love Song , que andava "perdida" mas entrará no novo álbum Payola . A canção de amor para uma jaqueta de couro foi a última feita ainda com Johnny Marr na guitarra que, pouco tempo depois, deixaria a banda para seguir carreira solo. O vídeo volta no tempo e faz o passado se encontrar com o presente, mostrando os integrantes da banda no começo da carreira, ainda adolescentes, em 1997. Uma bela ideia que [...]

" Leather Jacket Love Song " is an as-yet-unreleased 2010 song from UK brother band the Cribs, recorded during the period when Johnny Marr was in the band, and it's about to show up on the band's new career-spanning collection Payola . And the song's new video is made up of fuzzy old camcorder footage of the band members, in their adolescent years, gearing up to play their first show ever. Those haircuts are some serious late-'90s time capsules. Watch it below. Read More...

What were you doing back in 1997? I'd of been 8 years old and stuck in Primary School wondering why I was being made to learn long multiplication. I can honestly say to this day I've never needed it in every day life let alone the Pythagoras theorem I was taught in Secondary school. The Cribs were a little older though however, and they were in the stages of becoming a band. They're now preparing to release a singles collection called Payola and to celebrate they've offered up the only new track to feature [...]

This February, indie Brit rockers The Cribs will release Payola , a singles collection marking the band's 10th anniversary. The deluxe edition will feature B-sides and some new material, including the previously unheard “Leather Jacket Love Song.” Recorded back in 2010, "Leather Jacket Love Song" features the legendary Johnny Marr (The Smiths) on guitar during his three-year stint with the outfit. The track drips with Marr’s signature shimmering guitar sound - simple yet technical, but most of all cool - and is a tip of the hat to the doo wop, rock and [...]

[author-name] In our recent interview with Johnny Marr, the British guitar legend discussed his hired-gun relationship with numerous bands, including his time with post-Britpop rockers the Cribs, with whom he released one album, 20092s fantastic Ignore The Ignorant , before taking off to work on solo material. Among his unreleased work with the Cribs, though, is "Leather Jacket Love Song," which was recorded in 2010 but never saw the light of day. Till now.

The Cribs  wax nostalgic with the long-sought-after studio version of "Leather Jacket Love Song". The track has been a staple of the band's live show , but is only now seeing release through the band's forthcoming singles compilation Payola , due out February 25th via Wichita Recordings. "It's typical love song, like a lot of our songs," frontman Ryan Jarman told NME . "We wrote it after we finished (20092s) Ignore The Ignorant , so it's the last song with Johnny (Marr) on it. It never got released, despite the fact that everyone loved it, [...]
