Crack in the Road

Because I just haven’t quite done enough posts about Oxford downbeatsmiths Spring Offensive, here’s their latest video, for the song Carrier.

In the wake of the song, any sort of précis or admission of admiration and belief seems to come across as reductive or mawkish respectively, and besides, fellow Oxford act Aethara seem to have summed it up pretty well already. As they’ve noted, ‘Ok, so this isn’t metal! BUT… these guys are AWESOME!‘

Carrier is the b-side to forthcoming single Worry, Fill My Heart. Spring Offensive are dab hands at social networking, blogging, and indeed the lost art of actually having a real website.
