Snake Eyes: Gritty Pop with a Punk Bite

Snake Eyes are a refreshing jolt to the senses. This Brighton trio have managed to distill the raw energy of punk into a more accessible, melodic form, creating a sound that is both familiar and utterly compelling. Their music is a whirlwind of infectious choruses, driving rhythms, and a healthy dose of attitude.

It’s a sound that evokes the spirit of 90s alt-rock, but with a contemporary edge. There’s a vulnerability beneath the bravado, a sense of searching and questioning that gives their music a real depth. Yet, they never lose sight of the importance of a good, old-fashioned sing-along.

Snake Eyes are more than just another indie band. They’re a band with something to say. Their lyrics tackle issues of mental health and self-doubt with a refreshing honesty, while still managing to be catchy and upbeat. It’s a delicate balance, but one they pull off with aplomb. With their infectious energy and genuine songwriting, Snake Eyes are a band to watch.
