Label- Fat Possum
Genre- Noise pop

Crocodiles is back with album number two and their acclaim has not weakened them but allowed them to grow stronger. For those people that have had the pleasure of listening to the debut album, they will not be disappointed, and for those people that have yet to hear of this band they will be excited. Crocodiles is a genre bending band that really has found a balance in their music, melding together elements of psychadelia, lo-fi, noise pop, and even the elusive shoegaze genre. Crocodiles' sound therefore is very difficult to describe due to its highly original and experimental ways, but one thing can be said for sure and that is that one will not become bored listening to this album. This album is very well made with every song flowing into the next seamlessly, but while still making sure every song is unique. The songs are diverse and intriguing; some being slower while others capitalize on catchier beats. So, while the band is experimental, they are able to utilize their noise to make very catchy and stimulating tracks which makes one lose track of time. The album Sleep Forever can be best described as a refinement and an enhancement for those that know the band and for those that don’t, well, they will not be disappointed if they are looking for something fresh. Crocodiles is back and with this album I think they have affirmed they are not going anywhere but up anytime soon.
