Another short sharp blast of pure rock n' roll joy

Summer is here, and you need some theme music so you can strut, stride and party your way through festival and party season. You need VANT in your life. Check out the awesome video for 'Karma Seeker' on Gigwise first below. 

There's not much to dislike about VANT. Often clocking in at around two minutes, their clutch of songs are arresting despite being so slight, and Mattie Vant's lyrics are surely destined to be screamed back at him by bulging festival crowds. Not ones to outstay their welcome, expect a breezy set with buckets of attitude.

New single 'Karma Seeker' is another blast of pure grunge-rock joy and abandon. Leaning on a legacy of 90s rock, but with enough edge and compulsion to make it feel very much in the now, and oh so essential. The video is every bit as trippy and mind-blowing as the band's energy on stage. Find out for yourself with their epic summer of touring ahead - including appearances at Glastonbury, Reading + Leeds, Bestival and supporting the likes of Biffy Clyro and Catfish + The Bottlemen.

VANT release the Karma Seeker EP on 5 August.
