Brighton, UK Punks Harker Release New Single “Wasting Time” |
“With a sound that scratches all of the right MTV’s 120 Minutes, circa 1994, spots, Harker is a UK band after my own heart. The UK outfit reminded me of the same kind of angsty melodic vibe groups like Samiam, Gameface, and Superchunk gave off, but there’s also a nuanced dissonance to a lot of their material. Basically, Creation Records would have probably been into them back in the day.”- No Echo “…harkens back to the glory days of ’90s fuzzed-out guitar rock, with a bit of ’70s proto-punk thrown in as well.”- Consequence of Sound |
Brighton, UK punk rock powerhouse HARKER have released a new single titled “Wasting Time.” Stream on DSPs Stream on Youtube “‘Wasting Time’ is about the breakdown of communication in modern life – it’s easy to misunderstand and mislead when you only talk through a digital screen. Talk to your loved ones in person, debate face to face, and know when to set your boundaries if it’s not working. ‘Wasting Time’ is a back to basics, 4 chord postpunk pop ruckus track – heavy hooks and fuzzed out guitar walls, just how we like it.” Tour Dates: 23-25th June – Hamburg, Booze Cruise 30th June – Brighton, Prince Albert 8th July – Bolton, Right To Roam Festival 15th July – Portsmouth, Guildhall 28th October – York, One For The Road Festival |
