Soda Blonde have announced their new album and tour dates with lead single ‘Bad Machine’, out 14th July.The new album ‘Dream Big’ is out on 8th September 2023. Tickets go on sale Monday 17th at 10am GMT for Soda Blonde’s November ‘Dream Big’ tour. Available at www.sodablonde.com. Following two successful introductory EPs (2019’s “Terrible Hands” and 2020’s “Isolation Content”), they released their debut album, “Small Talk”, in 2021. The LP was subsequently nominated for RTÉ’s Choice Music Prize for Album of the Year and received rave reviews. The band have grown tremendously in the two years since their debut, and it shows. Whereas “Small Talk” was an anxiety-fuelled coming-of-age record about navigating their twenties, “Dream Big” is a mature awakening to the world at large; one that dives deeper and hits harder than its predecessor. 

‘Bad Machine’ pulses with intoxicating raw energy, and the cool suaveness Soda Blonde are becoming known for. Instantly the band hit you with a jagged sharp guitar hook and a dominant almost spoken vocal delivery before the song opens into a pop-sprinkled chorus that is embellished with scratchy guitar, dark synths and sticky beat slaps. The eerie tones are mirrored within the eloquent lyrics ‘’every part of me is a bad machine breaking everything all the time, every part of me has been wired to repeat, I’ve got a bad desire by design’’ and enhanced by shadowy hypnotic keys, whining guitar moments, and intoxicating bass. Soda Blonde weave together soft disco elements with sharp indie rock to create a single that showcases this band’s sonic wizardry in all its glory. If ‘Bad Machine’ is anything to go by then the new album looks very promising. 

About the track, Adam O’Regan said: “We can be slaves to our own impulses, it’s this idea of recognizing that this is just a part of who you are and going with that; but it’s a double- edged sword. Sometimes taking a chance, being spontaneous and taking a risk – they’re not always the safest moves to make, but that propensity to dare is what makes us great. We wouldn’t exist without it.”

  2. I have observed that of all different types of insurance, health insurance coverage is the most debatable because of the conflict between the insurance policies company’s obligation to remain adrift and the customer’s need to have insurance policy. Insurance companies’ commissions on wellness plans are extremely low, hence some companies struggle to make a profit. Thanks for the concepts you reveal through this web site.

  3. Hmm is anyone else having problems with the images on this blog loading? I’m trying to determine if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
