The Underrunners - Joyrider (Audio) Single

07/08/15

Opens with high pitched riffage catchier than a wicket keeper. The bass reminds me of early day’s Joy Division followed by a vocal that is not that far off that of Psychedelic Furs singer Richard Butler. Lyrically enticing, and stomp happy as the drummer beats her way throughout this post-punk gem. There’s a feel of ‘Isn’t Anything’ era My Bloody Valentine in some of the guitar work as it shoe-gaze’s its way through your skull. Jangly in areas, then jaggered as it cuts you to the bone. Keep an eye out for their debut album ‘No God No King’, which far from disappoints.
