Bucket release their highly anticipated single ‘Who Knows?’ on Friday November 10th 2023.
Having signed with Dublin-based label house A Baker’s Dozen earlier this year, the single marks the band’s first release since their DIY 8-track cassette & digital album ‘The Big Sin’ in October of 2021.
‘Who Knows?’ is a blistering effort at capturing Bucket’s deafening live performances. Smeared with textural guitars, driving basslines, and weighted drum grooves – the track is bursting with smitherings of garage, noise, and hardcore. While the track’s lyricism loosely discusses topics of insomnia and slow-paced city centre pedestrians, Who Knows? is largely a sonic statement piece; a testament to Bucket’s aural ability – it’s explosive breakdowns and increasing tempo marking the band’s shift towards even noisier contemporary planes whilst preserving the punk & garage qualities in the track’s influence.
For fans of:TheeOhSees, Gilla Band, black midi, Model/Actriz, METZ.
About Bucket:
The brainchild of guitarist/vocalist Cian Dahdouh, bassist Emmett McNamee, and drummer Josh Dorrell, Dublin-based 3 piece Bucket seemingly appeared from nowhere with their debut album in the latter half 2021; breeding the DIY ethics of garage and punk rock, soon endowing a reputation for their sweaty live shows. The band’s first show saw them sell out The Workman’s Club, soon playing an array of wall-to-wall DIY shows across Ireland. Just this year, Bucket have played support to the likes of Heavy Lungs and Press Club.
