Video: Under – Malcontents

Carl Fisher 1 min read

Under are a trio from Stockport, Greater Manchester, formed in 2016. Though rooted in the blueprints of Sludge and Doom Metal, their sound is harder to pin down with elements of Prog, Noise and Avant Garde creeping in. Think The Melvins, Big Business, Swans, Faith No More, Dillinger Escape Plan and Mr Bungle to name but a few.

Their debut album, Stop Being Naive was released on October 30th 2018 through APF Records and you can read our review here. You can also read a Track by Track breakdown of the album here.

Under have now unveiled their new video for latest single, Malcontent!

When asked on the theme behind the song, the band stated:

“Andy (Preece – drums, vocals) came up with this suitably grinding, droning riff while bored out of his mind waiting outside a changing room. As we arranged the overall tine, adding Mayo’s signature noise and our usual uneasy rhythmic approach, we tried to accentuate that feeling of anxious horror and discomfort as much as we could. To reflect this feeling I wrote the lyrics to invoke that sickly desperation apparent in anybody hungry for power.”
