Belfast based trio Chalk combine monolithic industrial guitar with post-punk on their single Asking, a song about fading memories, trying to cope with thinking about friends who have died. It becomes harder as time progresses and they feel guilty and angry about it. It is throwback to darker side of the late '80s, a sound that never really went away and is becoming cool again.
Asking is available on all the usual digital outlets. The video was directed by Benedict Goddard.
