Last month we revealed the first two instalments of the 2015 Too Pure Singles Club, and we're back to reveal the third - "Mastiff" by Welsh rock troupe Falls.

Fusing punk-rock, grinding lite-metal riffs and pop swagger, Falls craft a sublime mixture of noises. At times you can hear Tiffany, Taylor Swift and chart R&B, and at others it's angular guitar aggro like Death From Above 1979, or the chord barrages of Pulled Apart By Horses and DZ Deathrays. The blend is heady, and'll probably make want to smash things. It's delirious mosh-fodder for the pop world.
