IN the last few months, Voodoos have firmly embedded themselves in Glasgow music scene folklore with a riotous set at SWG3 supporting The Dunts and a sold-out headline show at King Tut’s. Ticking off two massive milestones, the band have displayed time and time again exactly why they’ve been tipped to follow in the footsteps of many of their local punk contemporaries.
Now preparing for the release of their upcoming EP ‘What Was The Supposed to Mean?’ out on 3rd July, the band are back with its lead single ‘TV Set’.
A track that will undoubtedly feel incredibly relatable to listeners across the country right now in the midst of self-isolation, ‘TV Set’ finds frontman Piero Marcuccilli stuck in a rut – talking to his TV set, unsure what time it is and where to go next. He ultimately rises above it though, channelling his anxiety and bewilderment into one of the band’s finest tracks to date.
Full of all the punchiness and punk-based tenacity that has informed their entire discography up until now, ‘TV Set’ is more lyrically introspective than we’re used to hearing from the outfit but its a sentiment that is bound to ring true with their fast-growing fanbase. Pair it with the band’s Strokes-esque guitars, heaps of distortion and anthemic choruses and you’ve got another impressive addition to their catalogue.
‘Sometimes I feel like I’m not good enough but that’s ok cause there will always be someone to take the stage’ Marcuccilli exclaims. You get the feeling though that there’s a lot still to come from Voodoos.
