Good evening everyone! I’m super excited to share with you this new single “Crackpot” by the professional and talented post-punk/alt-rock trio SickRichard. With this song, the band brings an amazing and unique mix of synths, guitar riffs and incredible drums. Recorded at Courtyard Studios with producer Ian Davenport, the track melds hard rock energy with a touch of electronic influences. The result? A layered, introspective yet swaggering anthem that captures the chaotic essence of everyday struggles while delivering a cathartic release.
The track starts with a pounding beat and a groovy bassline that grabs your attention right away. Guitars and nostalgic synths are powerful and built to a great and strong chorus. This track is true to its theme, balancing contradictions, mellow and anthemic, jarring and chill. This dynamic blend makes it a captivating listen from start to finish.
The band’s tight performance shines throughout and the production is polished. The soaring guitar melodies, energetic drumming, and rich delivery from the vocalist all combine to make the track unforgettable. It’s fresh, catchy and one of the best records I’ve heard in months. I’m officially a fan of SickRichard’s raw talent and creative sound. Their upcoming LP is something to get excited about if this single is any indication.
If you’re in London, you won’t want to miss their gig at 93 Feet East on Friday, December 13th, a perfect chance to see this explosive act live.
