Our single of the week is ‘Voice in Your Head’ by Bristol’s Shit Present. It’s a highly relatable scuzzy punkrock chat with your pesky ego.
“This is a textbook ‘I’ve been to therapy’ song.’ It really did come as breaking news to me in 2016 that I am not my thoughts and I might learn to have some agency over them. The melody was inspired by a song from the hit movie ‘Josie and the Pussycats’ and I wrote it in my head at work and recorded it on my phone in the toilet.”
Shit Present vocalist and guitarist Iona Cairns
Alongside the release of this new single, Bristol-based emo power pop outfit Shit Present have announced their long-awaited (seven years in-the-making) debut album ‘What Still Gets Me’ will be released 5th May via also-Bristol-based indie label Specialist Subject.
