The track comes ahead of the release of their highly-awaited debut album, set for early 2024.
The weird and off-kilter world of Home Counties is well established at this point, but the band continue to inspire and beguile listeners with the ambitious nature of the sound and style, with the addition of new band member Lois Kelly on lead vocals adding a new dimension to their sound.
The latest release and first to feature Lois is ‘Bethnal Green’, a chaotic, synth-laden single that encapsulates everything that makes the band feel so wildly exciting and distinctive. The track, while as raucous as ever, steps away from their usual more guitar-driven sound and instead embraces a more dance-oriented style, bursting with the aforementioned synths and taking on a melodic appeal that feels infectiously energetic and fun. The adventurous and exploratory nature of their sound is never going to feel commercial or safe, but this new avenue showcases the versatility of the band and their willingness to diversify and embrace a more melody-driven style. With their debut album set for release in 2024, it looks like something special could be on the horizon.
