Single title? So Wrecked Youth

What’s the song about? Education. Its cost, effects on expectations in life, real value in today’s job market flush with overqualified young adults.

How long did it take to write/record? One day! We actually did a live recording for this with vocal overdubs as an experiment. This is the first track we’ve ever done this way and it was dope!

Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release? This track is one of three tracks we will be releasing this year, each with an accompanying video clip. We wanted to do visual stuff this year! Next year will be our sophomore album.

What was inspiring you during the song’s writing and recording? Mostly the advice we all got from our parents and teachers: get an advertising job or work in finance, don’t do something useful like a trade, or machine operation, that’s for losers. You know, lies!

We’ll like this song if we like... Angry, agitated music. We do our best to take influence from all over. 

Do you play it differently live? We haven’t played it live yet due to it not being released!

When and where is your launch/next gig? Our next show is on the 13 Jun with our mates Statues at Amplifier Bar!
