Gurriers
Irish guitar quintet Gurriers are firing on all cylinders, confronting you with the problems of the modern world on their debut album. 'Come and See' is an exhilarating collection of razor-sharp progressive punk songs.
Formed in January 2020, a productive pandemic saw the band evolve remarkably. Gurriers have since played festivals across Europe and beyond, including SWN, Mad Cool, Reeperbahn, Left of the Dial, London Calling, Latitude, Haldern Pop, Off, The Great Escape, Pukkelpop, Pitchfork Music Festival London, Electric Picnic, and All Together Now.
They were scheduled to perform at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, last March, but Gurriers withdrew, along with almost all other Irish participants, due to the event's sponsorship by the US military.
Since October, Gurriers have been on their biggest tour to date in support of their blistering debut. Inspired by the timeless early records of The Strokes, Arctic Monkeys, The Chemical Brothers, and Black Midi, Gurriers' first album is no ordinary debut, but a rousing statement of intent from five people tired of politely dancing around the chaos.

With poppy hooks, punky basslines, and guitar-driven melodies, indie-rock trio Mood Bored shifts seamlessly between nihilistic cynicism and genuine hope, writing nostalgic songs about finding your place in a world where everything seems screwed up.
