More about: Home Counties

Home Counties have released their second single since their 2020 Redevelopment EP, mixing art-punk with danceable rhythms on the infectious new ‘White Shirt / Clean Shirt’. The song has a traditionally guitar-driven core, which the band embellish with synth to push the boundaries of genre and sound.

They’ve taken time in lockdown to experiment with and refine their sound, and the result is intoxicating. But looking beyond the fun, experimental sound, you find a deeper message. Like their last single, ‘Yuppies’, ‘White Shirt / Clean Shirt’ deals with the realities of modern working life and the feeling that you are losing yourself in a job that gives you no satisfaction.

In sound and message, this song will wake you up:

‘White Shirts / Clean Shirts’ is available now via Alcopop! Records.
