There's a murmur growing about this bunch and going off this new single we might just have got it right for once. Imagine Richard Ashcroft at his most smoky and understated or Ian Brown if he hit the odd right note as well as just winging it on insouciant cool.

Echo-heavy sweet swirling psychedelia, it thankfully falls just the right side of indulgence. Simple nagging melody that wanders up close to the campfire before sniffing the air and heading off somewhere a bit more interesting and a little less Evan Dando, Orange Can might just fill that Verve-shaped hole in your heart despite their terrible terrible name.
