This year's line-up was somewhat less stellar than last year's when I managed to see Art Brut, KaitO, Sons and Daughters and Secret Machines, a good night out in anyone's book. Secret headliners this year were Supergrass, for whom I hold no interest and The Futureheads who I got rather bored by last year the second time I saw them. So, a chance to check out some bands on spec. First up, Howling Bells, of whom good things have allegedly been reported. Well, not on this showing. A four piece with an appealing female singer, the first song holds the interest but the next two sends us to the itinerary and we head off to catch the end of The Aliens, who are a Beta Band spin-off. On arrival they are playing some sort of cod C&W track which is awful, but the next song hits a VU groove and is much more appealing. The next song is called Robot Man and is again pretty dreadful, with the singer embarrassingly throwing himself into it as though it was worthwhile - which it isn't as it mainly consists of him repeating 'I'm the Robot Man' over and over. But the next song, Ionas (Look for Space) is much more interesting, hitting an early Floyd groove at some length. So, a somewhat puzzling set but one which makes the band worth keeping an eye on. Next, it's 65 Days of Static if only because the name is promising. They're a post-rock Mogwai-like outfit from Sheffield who play instrumentals at significant loudness and speed. And they are fab tonight, hitting a spot I didn't know I wanted itched. Like The Mars Volta without the silliness. They will go far. We meet up with others in the party who have been to see The Delilahs and are raving about them. Unfortunately we're in a venue with Paolo Nutini who starts up some dull Turin Brakes type acoustic dullness. Romeo from The Magic Numbers is in the corner which figures. So we escape and head to Lock 17 where we want to see Forward Russia! later. Unfortunately we get there for about half an hour of Sway's set of dull grime which puts us in a bad mood, which Forward Russia! do nothing to alleviate as they churn out by-the-numbers indie thrash. No song stands out in my by now alcohol fuddled brain and after about seven songs one is relieved to receive a text saying that there is room for The Slits at the tiny Oh! Bar, so we hightail it down for the last 20 minutes. And they're great, a mix of old (Ari Up and someone sat down at the back) and new (possibly offspring), loads of energy on stage, intermixing vocalists and that great melange of rock and reggae which still sounds freshly minted. Catch them if you can. So, a less successful night than last year but that's the Crawl for you. Turn a different corner and we never would have met, as the poet sang.
