Description
"With a scrappy DIY mantra at their heart, Cardinals are the next great band to emerge from Cork's burgeoning music scene. On their debut self-titled EP, released via SoYoung, the Cork group smash through that notion entirely. There’s brooding intensity to be found, but songs like ‘Unreal’ show a softer, more melodic touch that shows they’re a far more kaleidoscopic proposition than that. One thing that does unite them with those bands, however, is that they are a product of Cork’s burgeoning DIY scene. “We put on shows in places where you wouldn’t ordinarily do that and we could capitalise on that,” explains frontman Euan Manning. This scrappy mantra makes it into the EP’s sound, however, and perfectly captures the sound of Cardinals in the here and now." - Nick Reilly, Rolling Stone
