FOUND / Factorycraft
FOUND is an comprised of three art college buddies from Scotland (lead vocalist and guitarist Ziggy Campbell, synth and bassist Tommy Perman and electronics and drummer Kev Sim) with a really cool, unique hybrid sound—there’s some garage band rawk, some raw emotive vocals (love that Scottish brogue, reminiscent of Frightened Rabbit, The Twilight Sad and Arab Strap), multi-synth layering and an experimental songwriting approach. Their latest record, Factorycraft, shifts tone and technique from track to track, creating a really interesting and rewarding listening experience. They’ve recently signed with Domino, but have also released work on Fence records, helmed by one of my favorite artists, King Creosote. “Anti Climb Paint” is the album opener, and a good example of the energy running rampant on the album.
