New Music Friday: Drenge – Strange Creatures


Strange Creature

Drenge have released their new album Strange Creatures today – have a listen on Live4ever via Spotify.

Strange Creatures is Eoin and Rory Loveless’ third studio album and ends a four-break between LP releases, but does more immediately follow the Autonomy EP of 2018. Live4ever described the album as ‘a fascinating record that takes real chances‘ in our review:




“The title-track is full Depeche Mode, and they do it bloody well. A brilliant, haunting piece of music, the growing tension throughout builds real impact. Prom Night is a totally different beast. The sax solo alone is the very essence of nostalgia; can any other instrument sound so forlorn? With it and a great build, Drenge conjure up feelings of regret, despair and pain, and the sax makes those feelings real.”

“In fact it almost transcends the song, like Claire Torry’s vocals of Great Gig In The Sky. On paper it sounds tacky, but on record it’s urgent and necessary and amazing all at once.”
