Year in Rock 2012 Nominee: The Cribs

THE CRIBS
Come On, Be A No-One
From: In The Belly Of The Brazen Bull
Released: May 15

After recording and touring 2009's Ignore The Ignorant with Johnny Marr, In The Belly Of the Brazen Bull finds The Cribs scaled back to a three-piece and strapping TNT to the refined tone and sound of that previous album. Dripping with a thick sauce of '90s nostalgia and mostly devoid of the more angular and dance-oriented slant of their early work, the album packs lots of thrills for fans of crunchy power pop. Look no further than Come On, Be A No-One, a gloriously noisy pop song the likes of which Rivers Cuomo would sell a nut or two to be able to write these days.
