The Gilhoolys Refuse Predictability on Bold and Complex New Single Bad Routine
Released just a few days ago, Bad Routine is the multi-faceted and fervent new single from Glasgow-based indie rockers The Gilhoolys. Crafted by the outfit's frontman, Dev, it's a tune that explores many sonic highways. We're picking up notes of The Foo Fighters…with hints of Manic Street Preachers…and even a dash of The Pixies. It's a complex fusion that swirls with boldness and character, and essentially, it's a track that I've fallen completely in love with.
Recorded at Main St. Studios and produced by Andy Anderson, Bad Routine captures the genuine passion and soul of The Gilhoolys. There's a raw edge that cuts through Andy's polished production, and it gives the song an intensity that feels tailor-made for packed venues.
Described by the band as being about "the way we succumb to unbelievable corruption," Bad Routine also showcases the storytelling excellence of The Gilhoolys. They're not here to deliver generic music and predictable tunes - they're intent on shaking things up.
On December 6th, The Gilhoolys will be launching their album in Glasgow. Promising to be a memorable event and a chance to see Bad Routine in its purest form, it's the kind of gathering that I wish I could be at!
