Merseyside grunge-rockers The Mysterines are fresh off of touring with Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes and prepping for album number two, ‘Afraid Of Tomorrows’. To pave the way for a paranoid and brooding future, the four piece have come back with ‘Stray’, a creeping serenade to the dark shadowy recesses of the human psyche.
Lia Metcalfe’s bewitching vocals are at their most commanding, wrapped around a moody bassline, dragged along by striding drums through the verses before the chorus hits like a raging force of nature, the singer feverishly bellowing the incensed proposal: “We’re stray/ Can we just rewind back?”.
‘Afraid Of Tomorrows’ is due for release on 7th June 2024 and you can pre-order it now on transparent orange 180g vinyl and CD. We’ve put the tracklist for you below:
