Squid, a prominent experimental band in the UK’s 2020s guitar music scene, has released their third album, 'Cowards,' which expands on themes from their earlier works. While their debut, 'Bright Green Field,' tackled capitalist issues and political despair, 'Cowards' delves deeper into the nature of evil itself, addressing broad themes such as apathy and greed. The album features eclectic soundscapes, with shape-shifting songs like 'Blood on the Boulders' and ambient narratives that highlight the band’s unique approach to storytelling through music, described by lead singer Ollie Judge as 'dark fairytales.'
Squid's third album, Cowards, encapsulates a sweeping gaze on the darker impulses of humanity, fusing post-rock with themes of cowardice and apathy.
Ollie Judge described Cowards as 'like a book of dark fairytales', reflecting its exploration of humanity's ugliest instincts through expansive soundscapes.
