Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Despite crows being associated with the idea of protection, it is difficult for the wary to see them as anything as the harbinger of sorrow and ill omens, they, and their feathered cousins, are in the background of every graveyard scene, their voices sung not in admiration or compliment, but in forewarning, the portent of the sinister times and possible death.

Perhaps though, rather than steering clear of the song of crow, we instead should honour them by paying closer attention to the sound rather than what our perceived intentions are, for the music that such bird make should insist to us that we live In Praise Of Crows rather than demonising them.
