Often when we talk about bands, we talk about bands having “IT”. We don’t always know what “IT” is but we definitely know it when we hear “IT” . We can say without hesitation that when we listened to “I’d Be Delighted”, from Boston based The Grimly Pleased, we definitely hear “IT”

The new release continues the band’s unique ability to be relentlessly upbeat and

simultaneously edgy. The songs explore the happiness of being in a relationship (“I’d Be

Delighted” and “My Superstar”) as well as leaning into the hopefulness of the absurd (“I Will Say” and “Ah Ah Ah Oh”).

What we really love most about The Grimly Pleased, is they have a unique and original sound that is both fresh and familiar. Punk,grunge,indie rock- all rolled into an incredible sound.

We found ourselves dancing around the office and singing along almost instantly.

Recorded in April of 2025 at the Record Co. in Boston and engineered by Mike Quinn (The

Daylilies, The Magic City), this release furthers the band’s partnership with artist DanielBenayun, whose cover art is also meant to pair with the band’s future 7” release, “I’ll Choose It”

So go ahead and find your favorite listening spot and get mesmerized by The Grimly Pleased and brilliant EP, “I’d Be Delighted “
