Glasgow’s genre-spanning post-punk outfit Poster Club are back with new single ‘Circuits’, set for release on February 20 via Electric Honey Records. Following the success of their recent singles ‘Tradeston’ and ‘Goth Parade’, which leaned into dance and synth influences, ‘Circuits’ takes listeners on a journey back to the band’s raw, punk-inspired origins.

With its thumping pace, dissonant guitars, and a high-octane climax, ‘Circuits’ showcases Poster Club’s ability to merge punk swagger with their signature blend of post-punk and new wave sounds. Introduced with apprehensive guitar chords, the song quickly launches into a driving rhythm, reflecting themes of vulnerability and emotional honesty.

Poster Club’s debut EP pair, Deterioration Parts 1 & 2, released in late 2023, marked their arrival on the Scottish music scene, leading to a near sell-out show at King Tut’s.

Dopo aver firmato con Electric Honey Records, l’etichetta responsabile del lancio di icone come Biffy Clyro, Belle & Sebastian e Snow Patrol, il profilo di Poster Club è solo cresciuto. Il loro primo singolo con l'etichetta, ‘Goth Parade’, ha guadagnato una caratteristica sul programma BBC Radio Scotland di Billy Sloan, e il loro stile di genere oscuro continua a catturare l'attenzione del pubblico nazionale e internazionale.

Circuits segna un altro capitolo nell’evoluzione musicale di Poster Club. Con il suo sincero lyricismo, i pacey riffs e i drammatici cambi di ritmo, il singolo esemplifica la capacità della band di mescolare autenticità e innovazione. Questo non è un gruppo legato a un solo suono - Post Club utilizza una paletta sonora di punk, techno e sintesi, e tutto tra di loro.

“‘Circuits’ is about opening up and letting someone truly see what’s inside you—both emotionally and literally,” explains vocalist Konrad. “The lyrics, ‘“rip me open, look at my circuits,” are raw and unfiltered, inspired by artists like Scott Hutchison of Frightened Rabbit and Brian Sella of The Front Bottoms, who have this incredible knack for honesty in their writing. It’s a concept that felt personal and urgent to explore.”

La canzone era in arrivo da molto tempo, con le prime idee risalenti a un riff di chitarra salvato in una nota telefonica dalla fine del 2018. Un cambiamento di line-up e l’aggiunta di un nuovo batterista hanno portato nuova energia alla traccia, rivitalizzandola e stabilendo il tono per l’evoluzione del suono della band.

“It’s the stepping stone between our old sound and new direction,” adds Konrad. “We’re just as excited by the dance and technical tracks like ‘Tradeston’ as we are by the guitar-driven, punk-edged songs like this.”
