Renowned for their chaotic and increasingly incendiary live shows, Squid have come a long way since forming in 2016 as an instrumental jazz band for a monthly night in Brighton.

After relocating to London and catching the attention of producer Dan Carey, the band released a string of singles on Speedy Wunderground and the Town Centre EP (2019) which cemented their reputation. An album deal with visionary label Warp followed, and the hype grew further.

Following the meteoric success of their first two albums Bright Green Field (2021) and O Monolith (2023), which took the band all over the world, the English art rock quintet extend and explore textures of folk, kosmische, psychedelia, jazz and electronics on their new album, Cowards – hovering at 30,000 feet above distinct tales of human evil: apophenia-tinged songs punched by vantablack comedy.
