Porridge Radio share latest new album preview The Rip


Porridge Radio



Porridge Radio’s new album is coming out next month.

The Rip – the next preview of Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder To The Sky ahead of its release on May 20th – was the last to be completed according to Porridge Radio’s Dana Margolin.

“We wanted it to sound like massive pop, like Charli XCX, but with the instrumentation of bands like Slothrust or Deftones,” Margolin continues.

“It took the longest a song has ever taken me to write lyrics for, and they took form over a few years. At the beginning it was a song about a power dynamic where I was in control, by the end it was about one where I had none.”

“My friends always accuse me of making up idioms and using them like they are well known phrases and I think this song is full of those. I love the idea of something being sick at the seams, like it’s disintegrating from its core.”

“I like things that are so simple they are universal. I wanted it to sound like when your heart breaks so badly that your entire body aches. I wanted it to feel like your soul is dropping out of your body.”
