I tend to get Bristol’s Froglord mixed up with all the other current bands with the word “Frog” in their names, but that always changes when I hit play on one of their tracks. When I do that, I’m like, “Oh right, this is the Frog band that kicks ass.” Their new single “Croak” is… The post Froglord – “Croak” …
