Daily electricity to load your batteries

YOBS are a knife between the teeth gang from Liverpool,
gearing up for their self-titled debut LP, out on May 3.
Pre-order info here.

Ahead of it the band dropped another new jackhammer,
named CYANIDE, from the upcoming full-length.

“Cyanide is a song Ali [bassist Alex Smith] wrote the music and I wrote the lyrics to, back when we had a short-lived band called Teenage Crimewave. Lyric-wise I had just read an article on the scientist, Alan Turing. For those who don’t know, Turing was a scientist and Mathematician, and who is credited for being the father of AI, and who happened to be gay. It was illegal back then and he was ordered by the court to undergo chemical castration injections to lower his libido. He ended up taking his life by poisoning himself with Cyanide. The song comes from the angle of one of the angry mob who stalked him, and stopped him living a normal life. It’s a proper sonically driven, fast paced rock n roll tune!”

TUTV: This hit-and-run missile cuts fast-forward with razorblade force.
Chainsaw guitars, crazed percussion and vitriolic vocals work together here
with vicious blitzkrieg aggressiveness. Cyanide rattles like a riot-gun. 118 seconds
of ferocious frustration. No rest for the murderous wicked. This brutal headbutt
will haunt them.
