crushed, the duo of Temple Of Angels’ Bre Morrell and Weekend’s Shaun Durkan, make an extremely cool form of blurry, resonant alt-pop. There’s a comforting ’90s familiarity to their music, but it never evokes any specific act or subgenre. Instead, it lands in a zone of happy-sad contemplation, scratching a mental itch that I didn’t know I had. The band’s full-length debut no scope comes out this fall, and we’ve already heard lead single “starburn,” which rules. Today, crushed follow that song with a new one called “cwtch.”
