Another fine band on the Big Cat label then. Broken Dog are destined for bigger and brighter things and as a starter 'Safety In Numbers' is a beautiful beginning. Boasting a lushious chorus and gloriously laid back guitars this is one of the best singles released thus far this year. What’s more I’ve also got the album and that is equally as stunning. Get your ears around this lot sooner rather than later. It is that good.

More Lo-fi noodling around from Broken Dog duo Martine and Clive, the lead track and little-known Kinks classic 'Lazy Old Sun' effortlessly evoking sun-drenched summer meadows whilst the overall vibe (six tracks spread over 17 minutes odd), manages to be simultaneously woozy, happy and a little bit disturbing.
