Glasgow/London duo of Ray Aggs (Trash Kit, Shopping) and Eilidh Rodgers (Golden Grrrls) took their roots in the punk world and wound it together with myriad influences, from Afrobeat through pop and post-punk, to create a glorious and unique hybrid. Strike a Match, the band's urgent and infectious debut, was released on Mogwai's Rock Action label in 2017 and won the prestigious Scottish Album of the Year Award that same year. It garnered warm critical acclaim, receiving a 7.7 from Pitchfork who said that the band's "tightly-wound art punk unspools their anxiety and turns it into something worth celebrating." That success was quickly capitalized on with another full-length effort, the band's second LP Run Around the Sun, which was released in 2019. More than five years have now passed since that release, and while Sacred Paws' absence wasn't necessarily deliberate, it was certainly intentional, with Ray and Eilidh deciding that rather than force the work, they would take as long as they felt they needed to produce the album they knew they were capable of. Jump Into Life, the lush and layered new album from Sacred Paws, is proof that such a journey was both necessary and significant. Composed of 11 new songs, it takes the roots of the Sacred Paws project and breathes fresh life into it, blossoming into something both abundant and more colorful than has come before-a gentle skewing of their signature sound that feels wildly thrilling. Opening track "Save Something" sets an immediate tone, beautiful strings adding an emotional depth that wraps itself around the listener. "This song has been really special to us ever since we first wrote it, and we wanted to make it as big as possible," they say of the track. "We've never written anything that comes this close to being a ballad, but we're really proud of it. It's a pretty simple breakup song but one that's trying to also be as hopeful and loving as possible." That thematic thread, of remaining positive in the face of heartbreak, weaves throughout the record, and it breeds affection the more explicitly it reveals itself, both in sound and sentiment. Lead single "Another Day" exemplifies this broadening shift in their palette. Gorgeous vocal harmonies and a real pop spirit are underpinned by banjo and fiddle that lend the track a playful edge but also a real heartfelt sheen to the whole thing, a forthright step into something bold and new. "Turn Me Down" ripples with the unyielding spirit of their more recognizable African and roots influences, the vocal harmonies again lending the track a world-weary edge that allows the whole thing to linger long after the song is wrapped up. Elsewhere, "Fall for You" feels emblematic of the album's overall impact. Finding Sacred Paws at their riff-y best, the shifting and unique time signatures mirror the song's lyrics that depict that feeling of being right on the precipice of emotional devastation while fighting to stay balanced. The whole thing is brought together with sweeping strings and a gritty guitar solo that adds a dramatic new edge to their sound. Personal catharsis through music is nothing new, but Sacred Paws attack their own demons with a gutsy, characterful heft across Jump Into Life. It's still every bit as infectious and vital as what's come before, but it funnels those moments of heady release through feelings of heartbreak, healing, and renewal. "It's definitely a Sacred Paws record, but it feels a bit older and wiser," the pair explain of their new chapter. With their signature sense of fervor, Sacred Paws continue to hurtle forward, jumping into life, embracing that forward motion that stops lingering in the shadows of life's messiness. Full of endearing energy and buoyed by new sounds, textures, and character, Jump Into Life is both a callback and an evolution, unafraid to reveal it's warm and heavy beating heart, even with all the anxiety such a thing entails.

My puppy’s favorite fetch toy!
Size: Small
Update Aug 27, 2024: After 10 months, these are still his favorite ball. He’s obsessed with fetching and plays with them all day. They do bounce really high. Unfortunately, the small size aren’t available for sale anywhere anymore. I tried the medium size, and he has a bit of trouble hanging on to them, but he manages. Weirdly, he prefers the orange one, but he also plays with the blue one. My 7 month old Shih Tzu puppy loves to fetch, and these are his new favorites. They’re small enough to fit in his mouth, and they are made of hard plastic, so he’s able to hold on to them. They have a lot of bounce, and this adds to the fun for him. I highly recommend them.

Genuinely bummed that these great balls can’t stand up against my Chloè.
Size: Medium
I love all the Chuckit brand of balls. I found that the Strabo and glow balls in the Chuckit line are the softest, and as such, don't last as long as the rest of Chuckit line of balls. Having said that, they do last longer than than every other brand I've tried (and I do believe I’ve tried every brand available on the market today.) The strato balls do bounce higher than any of the other balls in the Chuckit line. They really are a good value.

Great dog balls at a great price
Size: Medium
The balls are a favorite for my dog. I could have done without the hole through the middle because I don't do treats in balls anyway. My dog loves balls for their own merit. I needed replacement balls for my Nerf Dog Ball launcher. It seems the originals have disappeared from the market. I took a chance because the price is right and this Chuck-it ball works very well so we're liking this ball a lot. So far my Dachsund, who can destroy a tennis ball (the kind they are selling as Nerf Dog replacements) in 3 minutes has not done any damage to this one so that's a win. I recommend this as a much better ball than the fuzzy tennis balls. I like the colors too since many dog toys are green (which gets lost in the lawn, etc.) or red (even though dogs have red/green color blindness. Blue and orange are good and pretty easy to find. I liked these well enough that this set was my second purchase so I will have spares in case the others are lost.

My Baby loves his new baby!
Size: Medium, Size: Medium
Finally! A ball my 107 lb. pitty/pointer mix can’t destroy. He has torn up every single “indestructible” toy in a day or so until now. He peels fabric and fur off non-rubber toys. He is a 4-legged shredder. I’ve added pictures of him for a size reference of my dog versus this product. I know I had wanted that when shopping for this item. This ball is now his beloved “baby.” He goes absolutely insane looking for it, chewing it, chasing it, and even sleeping with it. He won’t rest unless he knows exactly where it is. It is his only toy, and he is good with that. After getting this home, I tried giving him other choices, but he won’t touch them. I was worried that he would rip it apart by putting his teeth in the holes, but so far, not a scratch. It is soft enough to collapse just enough to keep it from cracking when his jaws crush it but not so soft that he can rip it to sheds. The holes are large enough to prevent a suction or vacuum effect on his tongue or mouth. For his size jaws, it is a perfect fit. Other dogs might have problems with suction or be able to get their teeth in those holes and rip it apart. Who knows? The older version of the Chuckit squeaky ball was his favorite for the year and a half he had it, but the way they make them now, he peels off the orange triangle in hours flat, the squeaker falls out (choking hazard), and then he rips it apart. I’m going to stock up on these. I can’t imagine how crazy he will be if they ever stop production or change the materials.

Durable. Squeak doesn't last forever with my aggressive chewers but crinkle does. Best balls.
