It’s Chest Pains who are the first New Music Guide highlights of July.
Chest Pains made their live London debut earlier this week armed with new double A-side single Petrified/Shame. “My inspirations lie within day-to-day social encounters that spark an emotion within me, whether that’s anger or anxiety,” singer and guitarist Sammy Robinson explains.
“As soon as that something happens I just write lyrics straight away. ‘Petrified’ is about a long-distance relationship whilst ‘Shame’ [the forthcoming flip side] refers to the narrow-minded people who live in my home town, the town itself and how it’s basically frozen in time.”
