Squid - Bright Green Field (Album Review) Tuesday, 11 May 2021 Photo: Holly Whitaker Squid are part of a wave of British bands—alongside such outfits as Black Midi and Black Country, New Road—who have a number of tags swirling above their heads, from post-punk to post-rock. Yet, and this is crucial, their music mostly does away with anything approximating a pigeonhole related to genre. However, one thing that unites these bands is their emergence around the time of Brexit. As a result, they represent a frustrated and fatigued part of society, disillusioned with government policy and finding reasons for optimism hard to come by.
