Review by a chap called Paul,.. http://ondancefloors.blogspot.com/2008/06/middlesborough-music-liveankles-future.html .... ANKLES is an uppercase-loving trio from Hartlepool in North-East England. Their sound has been described in various places as "The Shins but lower." Which in a twisted comical way does somewhat describe their sound, better than I'll be able to anyway. Using two bassists and a drummer, they create complex soundscapes which you find yourself getting lost inside, as they slowly build up and cascade down. In the rare event they use vocals, they treat them just as another instrument and they don't take more limelight from the drumbeats or the bass riffs at all..... In their song Angles, they use fingerclicks as part of the percussion in the most brilliant way, you just want to join in like some crazed jazz fan. If you can cope with not singing along to a song and can appreciate great talent of creating good instrumental music, you should definately check them out. ....
