'Wolf Alice are a four piece from Camden, who play guitars, bass and drums, and write moody, grungey, arty and anthemic rock songs delivered with charismatic swagger by guitar toting frontwoman Ellie Roswell. It's almost like the 21st Century never happened...Bassist Theo Ellis, however, came to her rescue, recalling their first encounter with a record company A&R man who sneered at the band's lack of identity. "We never really worked it out. So f*** you!”'
