Cheatahs - Sans
Channelling shoegaze and grunge bands from each side of the pond in a Sub Pop meets Creation stylee, without sounding overly derivative, Sans is a non-stop, joyous thrash from start to finish.»

the debut release on wichita from their latest signings, cheatahs, is the 'sans' ep, an electrifying blend of raucous guitars, driving drums and breathy vocals. the sound recalls the glory days of shoegaze (swervedriver, my bloody valentine, the boo radleys etc.), but where so many of their contemporaries concentrate on the sonics of that genre, cheatahs also possess the songcraft and tunes that make them stand-out head and shoulders above the competition. recorded and mixed in london by the band, the 'sans' ep sees cheatahs up the ante set by their 'coared' ep and will maintain their position as much-tipped ones to watch.
