Description
W.L. lands like the kind of debut you hope a hometown hero will make. The Snuts, four friends from West Lothian, came out swinging in April 2021 with a record named after the place that shaped them. It went straight to No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart, edging a high‑profile release from Demi Lovato that same week and making them the first Scottish band in 14 years to send a debut to the top spot. That headline says plenty, but the album itself tells the fuller story, track by track, with stubborn heart and a knack for hooks that feel built for night buses and festival afternoons alike.
You hear their roots immediately. The guitars snap clean, then get ragged when the choruses hit. Jack Cochrane’s vocal is roughened at the edges in the best way, emotive without slipping into melodrama. The sound nods to the British indie lineage they grew up on, but the writing is direct and modern, focused on big feelings and everyday details. The title W.L. feels like a promise to keep it local even as the rooms get bigger, and that promise comes through in how specific these songs can be about place, friendship, and escape.
“Glasgow” is the obvious centerpiece, and if you have even a passing interest in why this band won so many people over so quickly, start there. It’s the closer on the standard
