Lost In Music: Deadletter- The Snitching Hour

Okay, maybe indie isn’t dead, after all. Deadletter have made one of the best singles of the year here. Like The Cribs and The Zutons, with a pinch of The Jam in the bassline, this is a belter. The Yorkshire band are on their way.

It’s caustic, catchy as hell, and there’s a nod to Peter Gunn in the saxophone break. The video is fun too, definitely referencing The Sweeney. All to the good,then.
