New Slyrydes single
One Is Too Many
With Dan Doherty from Darklands studio in Dublin now the band's official drummer, Slyrydes make an emphatic return with One Is Too Many.
They have always spoken with conviction and passion about real issues, especially the mental health crisis that exists in Ireland. The new single addresses this explicitly and candidly; both in the self-awareness that being sober is simultaneously critical but can also feel like no craic, and in the haunting spoken word sections which close out the track.
To keep up to date with what's happening in Irish punk, post punk, psych, motorik and electronica follow our Blowtorch Records' 'Gas It Up' Spotify playlist.
