IT'S HARDLY SURPRISING that so many people in their twenties are pissed off. With eye-watering rents and little chance of ever owning a home of their own, low-paid jobs… there’s plenty to be pissed off about.

In Glasgow, the new figureheads of that youthful dissatisfaction and frustration have arrived in the shape of Gallus, who with their debut album We Don’t Like The People We’ve Become have captured the sense of everyday frustrations and challenges via a collection of spiky, punky vignettes that sit somewhere between the serrated indie rock of Fontaines DC and the urban slices of life so deftly illustrated by The Streets, a band that frontman Barry Dolan cites as an inspiration.
