Augustines

These Brooklyn indie rockers have hints of the feral shoutiness of Wu Lyf, the rootsiness of Mumford and the stadium-busting anthemics of Springsteen. A potent combination, then – and now that they've managed to secure the rights to their name (after a period playing as We Are Augustines) they could well be unstoppable soon. Until then, check out their London-set video for 'Cruel City', which makes the Smoke look like a total dump.
