Politically Charged Indie Punks Slyrydes have announced a new single coming next month called ‘Boy in the Debs Suit’.
The Irish four-piece released their first five singles from March 2019 to March 2020 (‘Mental Health’, ‘Point of view’, ‘Out Patience’, ‘Dangerous Animals’, & ‘I Claim to be Intelligent’), which helped the band gain a great deal of critical acclaim across the UK.
The band’s debut, ‘Mental Health’, helped carve their message, with the band saying “As a band everything around Mental Health generally was a binding force for us. When we first started we were a bunch of codependent messes. As our band developed over the years we have been through so much in our own personal ways and as a group. Members have been through rehab, The mental health system in the HSE. Members have been arrested and members have been through full on breakdowns and addictions. It’s brought us so close as a band. We’ve really grown as people together. It’s something we are very serious about. It’s also something we need to write about.”
“When you see pictures of missing people it’s a harrowing jolt. Especially when you’ve known them… When you’ve personally been at the very edge there is a palpable sense of connection. I think that’s mainly what this song ’Boy in the Debs Suit’ Is about. ’We were in the same place’ is a line that really hits home. We don’t actively TRY to write sad songs. It’s just a subject we feel strongly about.”
Adding “The mental health services in Ireland need a lot of work. Sometimes people feel like they are shouting into the void.”
All of Slyrydes releases have been engineered and produced by Dan Doherty in Darklands Dublin, and in 2020, against many odds, Slyrydes managed to record their debut album.
“We managed to get into Dan in Darklands in between lockdowns in September 2020. I think it was a mixture of luck and sheer determination”
‘Boy in the Debs Suit’ is a single from the band’s upcoming debut “We definitely didn’t write the same song 12 times. Which made it so difficult to pick a new single. We cannot wait to share this album with the world”
‘Boy In the Debs Suit’ will be arriving on the 8th March.
