Been Stellar have shared another preview from their forthcoming debut Scream from New York, NY, out June 14th.

It All Comes Down to This is the sound of the current incarnation of A Certain Ratio.

Sydney duo Royel Otis, are starting 2024 with a bang with the release of their new song “Velvet.” “Velvet” is the fourth single to feature on PRATTS & PAIN following “Adored”, “Fried Rice” and “Heading For The Door.” The duo chant in unison across “Velvet”, a foot-stomping jangle of chugging guitars and keys that becomes a cathartic release.

Royel Otis continue to storm the US Alternative Radio charts with their hit single “Sofa King.” The song is making waves across the US as new fans discover their undeniable indie rock magic. Their album will be followed by a North American headline tour, which includes recently announced festival performances at Kilby Block Party & Shaky Knees.

Sydney’s favorite indie duo, Royel Otis are sharing their newest single, “Adored” out now via OURNESS. “Adored” is a sharp post-punk leaning treat, with its snappy beat keeps you upright and Otis’ croon drawls across an earworm lullaby. Produced and mixed by Grammy Award-winning producer, Dan Carey (Wet Leg). 

The track arrives with a video directed by Sam Taylor, who previously directed the videos for Fontaines D.C.’s “I Love You” and “Roman Holiday”. Speaking of the video, Taylor explains, “Taking inspiration from Lars Von Trier, George Orwell, Billy Wilder, our film analyses loneliness, self-doubt then acceptance, appreciation and human connection.
