Dinsaur Pile-Up - Birds and Planes
Leeds rockers unveil the first single from their debut longplayer
Having played with Pulled Apart by Horses, The Automatic, and even the Pixies, Leeds trio Dinosaur Pile-Up have already proved that they’re here for business. 'Birds and Planes' is the first single to be released from their eagerly anticipated debut album 'Growing Pains', released in September.
'Birds and Planes' immediately bursts in with a crunching riff and somewhat downbeat lyrics. From here on in, the energy never ceases as the trio play the hell out of their instruments with no half-heartedness in sight. Even the vocals keep their edge, unwilling to get lost in the (good) chaos surrounding them. Frontman Matt Bigland has confessed that he wants people to be able to sing along to their songs, even if the lyrics are not of the
happy kind - and it's pretty evident here, with lines like “Nothing is for sure/ you know/ except the day you go to hell”. As the song goes on, the stakes are raised as the riffs get heavier and the drums get louder, finally comes to a head when the track reaches its glorious peak. If this first single is anything to go by, the forthcoming debut will be more than impressive.
