The track is just the fourth release from emerging UK outfit.

Having established their cutting edge alternative rock sound on their first three singles, Edinburgh outfit Sub Violet continue to showcase their explosive and in your face sound on new release ‘After You’.

The track channels the attitude and intensity of alternative and indie rock acts of the 00s but with a raw, modern edge, melding power and heaviness with melody in a way that feels seamless. The hard-hitting nature of the sound feels built for a sweaty, live setting, and the atmospheric peaks and cathartic lyrics surrounding themes like relationships and hope make for a package that feels as emotionally resonant and relatable as it is impactful. Sub Violet are beginning to find a foothold in the UK scene, and only look likely to continue growing as the ambitious outfit continue to develop and expand their horizons.

Of the single. Sub Violet says: “The song is about feeling uncertainty from a relationship perspective while still clinging onto hope for a bright future. The lyrics were written after we produced most of the instrumental which allowed me to have a clear vision on what direction I wanted the lyrics to go and where I wanted to draw inspiration from. Inspiration comes from fictional characters in my head as well as others and personal experiences.”
