Edinburgh’s art school guitar popsters FOUND insist on capital letters.
Their sometime scratchiness will satiate those weaned on scuffed Scottish indie rock from way back, like Josef K or Fire Engines, but they’re clean and lean and melodic enough to clobber the casual consumer with chiming guitars and suckable hooks and falsetto vocal leaps, and clever clever enough for their third album to sport a Scottish Arts Council logo.
Ziggy Campbell’s Lowland blab is pleasantly unreconstructed, but for a band that began as an improvisatory experiment sometimes Factorycraft sounds a little tidy. Nonetheless, it’s easy to imagine them being massive.
