Wolf Alice - Bros

When Wolf Alice first put out ‘Bros’ in early 2013, they went from a bunch of hopefuls to a Seriously Exciting Band. The hype was already firmly place, but this sent Ellie Rowsell and co. into the stratosphere. Few groups pen hooks like the one ‘Bros’ centres around in a decade, let alone within months of forming.

It’s a song that’s clung on for the whole journey, right up to the release of debut album ‘My Love Is Cool’. Less a rehash, more a reaffirmation of the magic this song possesses, ‘Bros’ is all grown up. Additions include a couple of new lyrics (“Are your lights on, are your lights still on?”) and an actual definitive chorus. But it’s still the same song that put Wolf Alice on the map, and given their current situation - on the brink of actual, world-conquering stardom - it’s an ace in their sleeve that’s being played again at the perfect time.
