Strange Pink crash back onto the scene with ‘My Friend And You’, and take us down with them. This heavy rumbling alternative rock whirlwind thunders on with distorted riffs and defiant heart.
Yorkshire trio Strange Pink are channelling raw electricity on their new single ‘My Friend And You’, taking from their ‘Out Of Focus’ EP. Built on walls of gloriously fuzzed-out guitars and a bassline that swirls and grinds, ‘My Friend And You’ is drenched in the kind of distorted rumble that makes your chest vibrate, while Sam Forrest’s soaring vocals slice clean through the haze. It’s unpolished in the best way possible, the sort of track that rattles your ribcage while making you want to throw your arms around your friends and scream along to every word.
The band’s DNA was born from the projects its members were in before, as well as their inspirations; bands like Sonic Youth and Built To Spill. Dom’s powerhouse drumming feels particularly triumphant given his journey as a musician with cerebral palsy, proving that sheer passion can bulldoze barriers. Strange Pink’s sound carves out its own bruised, beautiful space. ‘My Friend And You’ is cathartic, chaotic, and completely exhilarating, the kind of alternative rock that leaves your ears ringing and your heart full.
