Brighton's finest The Maccabees songs are graced with hooky melodies and enough emotional moments to raise the goosebumps on the back of your neck. High on treble, taut and reveling in it's own tension, theirs is a sound that takes its cue from exponents of post-punk more modern than those resting in the pages of rip it up and start again. There's snap and crackle in their off-beat melodies, and real heat in Orlando Weeks' staccato vocal lines.
