The Punk Site 2023 Top 40: #13 Syteria – Syteriaworld

Another welcome discovery in 2023 was Syteria, who who occupy thirteenth in out annual countdown with their third full length, Syteriaworld, that was released in August via Cargo Records. The band was formed by Jackie ‘Jax’ Chambers, of the legendary UK rockers Girlschool, alongside Argentine siblings Julia and Pablo Calvo, and Steph Dawson, and have since established themselves as a force to be reckoned with. Syteriaworld is a powerful testament to the band’s growth and maturity. The album showcases their ability to create thought-provoking music that still manages to be catchy and fun and have created a powerful statement of intent, with each track offering a glimpse into the complexities of the human experience. 

“What comes through most of all in this, the bands third album (Syteria World) (yeah third I said, so maybe you have heard of them and I’ve just had my head in the clouds), is the fact that no matter what they have done before, this on its own would be enough for them to make it onto my “must see list”, and I would have to suggest yours too… An album full of music that hits heights other bands can just dream of, songs that give the Rock/Punk world a kick up the ass and a big old “fuck you we will keep playing and having fun doing it” vibe, it doesn’t have to be political or rage against the machine to be great in the world of Rock n Roll.” (Mark Cartwright)
