Genres: #surfpop #indierock
Location: Southampton, United Kingdom
Release date: November, 2021
Comment: This song is part of a 3-track EP that was written between Southampton (UK) and Reykjavik (Iceland), so I don’t think it is simply a coincidence that Weekend Punks remind me a bit of Icelandic band Of Monsters And Men. Weekend Punks claim to play Surf Pop with relatively little experience of surf or sun. I think their style is actually some kind of chilled back punk mixed with shoegaze pop and 90s rock vibes. The glue that holds everything together is the lead singer’s magnetic vocals. The Theme from Weekend Punks is the band’s second single and a good example of this very interesting proposition. Check it out!

The singer does sound a bit like Of Monsters and Men vocalist Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir.
Thank you! I knew I was onto something. I love Nanna’s voice, by the way.
So do I. I love Of Monsters and Men’s music.
