Liverpool’s own The Mags burst onto the scene with their debut single ‘When I Get Home,’ a track that immediately commands attention. This single is a thrilling introduction to their unique blend of early 2000s indie-rock and blues-rock, setting the stage for their upcoming debut album, ‘This Is The Mags.’
From the first note, ‘When I Get Home’ showcases The Mags’ mastery of a sound that is both raw and polished. The track’s distorted riffs, powerful drum patterns, and raw energy echo the influence of bands like The Black Keys and The White Stripes. The song’s infectious energy draws you in while painting a vivid picture of the highs and lows of young adulthood, capturing the essence of those exhilarating yet confusing years. The result is a track which is instantly recognisable while offering up foot-stomping ear candy to anyone in its path.
Discussing the track, The Mags explain, “It’s about the energy and confusion of youth. The ‘not knowing what the f*ck you’re doing, or where you’re going, and having to deal with low moments and mental health struggles, but those bad times being interspersed with incredible moments and wild highs with friends who are kindred spirits. It’s about the boundless energy and heartbreak of that messy time in all our lives.”
‘When I Get Home’ is a powerful debut that captures the essence of youthful exuberance and uncertainty. With their unique sound and compelling storytelling, The Mags are poised to make a significant impact on the indie-rock scene. Their upcoming album, “This Is The Mags,” promises to be a must-listen, cementing their place as a band to watch in the coming years.
