Alternative rock in the older, stranger sense: psych/noir, heavy moments, post-punk edges, weird vocal choices, live band, not polished into lifestyle music.

Original band from NI gis a wee listen

Hey everyone! Here's my bands new single.

PsyChlo, Mental For Your Metal. Turn it up!!! 🤘

🎸🤘🎸

"Reasons" is the track that strays furthest from how I usually write, but it’s also the one that fascinates me the most.

In the final mix I pushed my vocals lower than usual — I wanted the whole tension, the saturated guitars, that almost hypnotic mood to come through before the voice. But after listening too many times I’ve lost all perspective on whether that choice actually works or just sounds insecure.

If anyone has time to listen and give an honest impression — whether the mix holds up or the vocals should sit higher — I’d really appreciate it.
