“Conceptually, we wanted to write a song that could seem just as at home in a rave as a rock show. Lyrically the song explores the theme of conspiracy theorists and their fears that their left-field views could land them in trouble with the law.” – Poster Club
Glasgow based post punk outfit Poster Club add some frenetic dancefloor beats with recent single ‘Tradeston’, which is the last single from their new Deterioration Part II EP.
‘Tradeston’ sees a relatively new step in the band’s sound as they emerge from their guitar driven post punk comfort zone to much success going down a more electronic route with danceable shoegaze anthems like this one.
Recorded with Paul McInally (45 A-Side Recordings) ‘Tradeston’ displays another evolution of Poster Club’s exciting evolution, utilising drum machine and synths it is as ethereal as it is dancey, while vocalist Konrad delves into the world of conspiracy theorists in his daydream tinged delivery.
Poster Club released their debut EP Deterioration Part I in May 2023, which found praise on BBC Introducing Scotland, the band finds common ground between punk, new wave, goth and dance music, creating a sonic blend of genres that feels as authentic as it does nostalgic.
“For a long time, the band has wanted to introduce some dance/electronic inspiration to our music. This song was our first real commitment to exploring this new influence and was written during a very late night rehearsal and fleshed out in the studio whilst we explored new beats and sounds beyond what the band would usually be accustomed to.
