BUDGIE: Never Turn Your Back On A Friend
A slightly looser, more exploratory listen, Never Turn Your Back on a Friend lets the band stretch out a bit without losing the heft that defines their sound.
It takes its time, wanders a little, and ends up being all the better for it. One to settle in with when you’re happy to let a heavy record unfold at its own pace.
This is Budgie leaning into their quirks as much as their volume - odd song titles, unusual arrangements, a truly overlooked band.
