Holly Head delivers relentless punk energy with new single ‘Whatever Drags You Through It’
Manchester’s politically charged punk outfit, Holly Head, returns with their latest single, ‘Whatever Drags You Through It,’ out now via Akoustik Anarkhy. The track is a two-and-a-half-minute blast of sharp, confrontational energy that further cements the band’s reputation for incisive social commentary and fearless musicality.
With its rapid-fire, funk-infused new-wave punk sound, ‘Whatever Drags You Through It’ charges forward with an uncompromising spirit. The single follows last year’s breakout debut, ‘No Gain,’ which catapulted the band into the public eye and secured them a BBC 6 Music live session. The new track encapsulates the urgency and conviction that defines Holly Head’s approach, delivering an electrifying sonic assault that refuses to shy away from uncomfortable truths.
Speaking about the song, frontman Joe explains:
“When facing the massive and seemingly unchangeable task of trying to change our failing political systems, people can understandably feel totally powerless in their already struggling lives. An easier way is to shy away from it or, worse, resort to blaming migrants, trans people, and climate policy for the issues that repeatedly arise in our society. This song is essentially about how people come to explain away the harm they see and do in their lives, be it economically, socially, or both.”
As Holly Head continues its ascent, ‘Whatever Drags You Through It’ stands as a fearless statement, challenging listeners to confront the narratives shaping their world.
