Brisbane’s fast-rising indie pop punk outfit Bad Neighbour have officially become the second band to sign with to Ninth Life Records, marking a major milestone in their trajectory as one of Australia’s most promising new acts. To celebrate, the band are releasing new single Snarling today, launching live across Australia in July on a highly anticipated national tour supporting the legendary The Smith Street Band.
Bad Neighbour continue to develop their established raw lyricism over melodic instrumental hooks with Snarling, capturing the band’s knack for channelling vulnerability into anthemic indie punk. “Snarling was written after the end of a long relationship,” explains frontman Cooper Riley. “I was coming to terms with letting someone down, and how my life had changed and what the landscape of my future looked like.” The single showcases the band’s evolution in both sound and storytelling, and offers a taste of what’s to come under their new label partnership.
