Welsh poppy indie punkers Swansea Sound have never shunned away from their taking a stand. Their new single Toxic Energy is both an accusation and a consolation for those who feel that they are trapped in an unhealthy relationship. It's fast and damn catchy. The B-side Dinosaur Bones moves at a glacial pace, with the unspoken threat that failing to evolve will get you killed.
Toxic Energy is released via Skep Wax Records. A limited pink cassette edition in conjunction with Sm. Craft Advisory (USA) and Formosa Punk Records (EU) can be ordered via their Bandcamp.
