From sold-out shows packed with climbing fans to a growing cult reputation that’s caught the attention of tastemakers like CLASH and Wonderland, Kent’s indie-punk firestarters Strangeways are heating up. Following the buzzing success of last year’s breakout singles “The Ponds” and “Modern Art,” the five-piece returns with “B.P.R.S.” – a wild, hook-loaded anthem made for sweaty venues and summer chaos.

Channeling jagged guitars, unruly charm, and theatrical lyrics straight from a fairytale fever dream, “B.P.R.S.” shows the band doubling down on everything that’s made them a must-watch. With their riotous energy and sharp songwriting, Strangeways continue to carve their place in the UK indie scene – not just as a band to hear, but a band to feel live.

As they gear up for more releases and a sold-out show at London’s iconic 100 Club, we caught up with frontman Tom and the band to talk about sonic mayhem, live chaos, and the weird magic behind “B.P.R.S.”
