Vitalizing tunes that work faster than a stream of caffeine
23 October 2025
Band: Y
Who: Fresh electro-sax-punk
whirlwind from London.
Track: SKIPPER
New single following their
self-titled roasting debut EP.
Y: ‘Skipper’ was an obvious choice for our next single, as we’ve always had a strong
reaction from audiences, when playing it live. With this track we wanted to push the
sound we’ve become known for, restless and relentless. Lyrically the track ‘Skipper’
addresses class divide and hierarchy in which the rich skip through a world they feel
they own.
It is written like an acid trip, full of word play. Sonically, ‘Skipper’ aggresses against the outdated; It takes influences from the best of the past, whilst being firmly set in the now
but with an eye on the future.”
TUTV: Y drag you into their whirling frenzy from the kick-off. Skipper gets in your
face, fast and furious, actually the way I like it a lot. This badass belter is motorized
by a schizophrenic saxophonist and the vocalist’s spit and sneer vocality. Another
post-Brexshit-punk hype? You’d better believe it. Don’t miss them.
Wake-up! Y?
Here’s why.
