Suspect Your Elders’ follows 2021’s debut album, ‘How Soon Is Mars?’, which received critical acclaim for its innovative sound and emotional depth, taking listeners on a journey through the cosmos of their imagination. The album was celebrated by the likes of Punktastic, Noizze, At The Barrier, Visions and Everything Is Noise and saw the band awarded slots at festivals such as ArcTanGent, Portals and PWER.

Recorded, mixed and mastered with Mark Roberts (Delta Sleep, Black Peaks, Poly-Math, Jamie Lenman) at Devon’s Middle Farm Studios, ‘Suspect Your Elders’ expertly blends elements of math-rock, post-rock and ambient noise, creating intricate rock soundscapes to explore themes of unpredictability, complex emotions, and the dark side of the internet.

The final single ‘Surfer’ uses explosive riffs and seductive guitar lines to convey the dark side of time wasted surfing the internet. 

Explaining what they hoped to convey with the single, guitarist Josh says, “‘Surfer’ is an analogy for our complex and often overwhelming relationship with social media and the internet in general. While the internet is obviously an extremely powerful and useful tool ‘Surfer’ definitely explores the darker side – the ease with which we can lose ourselves online, hide behind a curated digital persona, or simply waste time.”

“The main inspiration for the song actually came from a time I found one of those Google home-page games, which happened to be based around surfing. I became so engrossed that I completely lost track of time and reality and played for well over an hour, as if I had been pulled into another world or dimension”, adds Rory.
