Gurriers

Gurriers (Grayce Leonard)

Recorded in Leeds at The Nave Studios with Alex Greaves, Come and See is a truly thrilling collection of razor-sharp progressive punk songs full of furious sucker punches. Firing on all cylinders, Gurriers present a searing counterattack on the malaise of the modern age.

To coincide with the announcement, Gurriers have shared new song Close Call, the follow-up to the BBC Radio 6 Music A-Listed, Des Goblin. A visceral, though sympathetic, powerful song about the challenges faced by the forgotten and bored youth of Dublin, Close Call turns up the ferocious guitar intensity to eleven, a fierce hybrid of guitar pop with industrial techno sensibilities.

About the album, Gurriers said: “The album is a noisy, guitar driven odyssey of our disillusionment with the modern world”. Check out the Close Call visualiser below:

Gurriers have also announced an extensive UK and European tour for October and November 2024. The tour includes six new shows in Ireland with a Dublin show at Whelans on 26th November as well as six dates across the UK including a London show at the Moth Club on 6th November.
