Rising from the ashes of a band that imploded while trying to write the most complicated songs known to man, the two men of GagReflex settled on a brave, defiant and altogether simpler approach; bass and drums were all that was needed to brew a fresh blend of punk rock. Something to leave an odd but addictive taste on the palate.
“My Disregards” is the first single released from A Mouthful Of Marbles, the debut album from Gloucestershire-based punk rock duo GagReflex. The band serve up a delicious slice of fresh, bombastic, bass-heavy goodness in this track, propelled along by a lyrical theme of helplessness, mental health issues, and the associated unwelcome attention from the medical and religious worlds. The accompanying video sees this story played out in a claustrophobic environment; our ‘victim’ becoming progressively more unhinged as the story plays out.
A Mouthful Of Marbles delivers ten tracks of noisy, spikey, infectiously melodic, math-punk from the same mould. Written and recorded over a three-year period, it marks the start of the band’s relationship with Swindon’s Secret Chord Records. A Mouthful Of Marbles is released on January 27th.
