Girls In Synthesis To Release New Single “I Know No Other Way” Ahead Of UK & EU Tour Dates

Lauded London based trio Girls In Synthesis will release their new stand-alone single, I Know No Other Way, on Friday 5th May via Bandcamp and digital platforms ahead of a run of UK & EU live dates. Following on from their second full-length, 2022’s The Rest Is Distraction, I Know No Other Way sees the band strip back some of the atonal, noisy elements of their sound and replace it with an intense sparseness, glassy clarity and an added melodic touch. The band’s trademark tribal drums and driving bass are still present, alongside warped, deathrock influenced modulated guitar figures, all adding up to a refreshing update on their truly experimental post-punk.

Taking a verse each, vocalists John and Jim sing succinct lines dealing with the physicality of human anxiety, and project the anguish of indecision. This subject matter leads on from the internal questioning and emotional darkness on The Rest Is Distraction, leaving the sloganeering and broad statements to the current crop of UK guitar bands. With a handful of dates booked in May, Girls In Synthesis will then retire for the majority of 2023 to record their third album that is due out in Spring ’24.
