The three brothers Jarman have consistently spit out out albums for the last three years, and their third, Men's Needs, Women's Needs, Whatever. is out July 17th. After becoming touring buddies with the Kaiser Chiefs and Maxïmo Park and having an album produced by Franz Ferdinand frontman Alex Kapranos, The Cribs are a thin slice of indie gold in Britain, a place where such accolades can still earn a spot in the charts (where they've broken the top thirty on more than one occasion with “Hey Scenesters!” and “Mirror Kissers”, two tracks whose titles alone hint at the appeal of an insider pedigree). Catch em on tour this summer.
