C Turtle is one of those bands whose sound people can’t quite define. Mercurial and melancholic, their style is a protean kind of soft, enveloping rock that relies as much on carefully spun lyrical poetry and unfiltered emotion as it does on fractal riffs and howling feedback that seem to follow in their footsteps.

The London band’s latest album, Expensive Thrills, displays a harmonious union of existential reflection and observations on how humanity seems to be going backwards. From start to finish, the record bursts with influences spanning the grunge, alternative rock and indie eras, with echoes of Pixies, Pavement.
