You Me At Six – SUCKAPUNCH

  • Stephen Ackroyd
  • January 14, 2021

Label: AWAL
Released: 15th January 2021


Sure, You Me At Six’s latest album might contain a lyric about “trying to sound like The 1975”, but don’t take that as a steer for the actual sound of ‘SUCKAPUNCH’. Instead, the quintet are sharpening up their edges. 

It’s a welcome move from a band that always sound their best with the pedal to the floor, less concerned with streaming trends and mainstream recognition. ‘Nice To Me’ opens with a bang, and – while the filter may switch between all-out rock to industrial pop – that driving ambition never lets up. 

2021 doesn’t feel like a year to stay quiet. With ‘SUCKAPUNCH’, You Me At Six are back at full volume.
