Live review: The Uprising, The Pipeline, Brighton, 27th June 2025
What an incredible showcase of bands this was! Fluffy Bunny, the host of Underwrld, definitely knows how to put on a banging gig! With Mirrors
Sorry Mom have grown from a group of college friends playing music together to a fierce and emotionally searing punk sound that fuses old school punk with pop punk, all with a hardcore edge.
Their music chronicles queer experiences and suburban despair through a nostalgic punk sound. And we can all get a taster of this with new track ‘Teeth‘.
It’s an emotional track about complicated parent/child relationships:
“This song captures the feeling of watching an immature parent grow old but never grow up. It’s about begging someone you have loved and lost to admit that, at the very least, they loved you the most.”
The song is a follow up to previous single ‘Shaving My Legs‘- a track which provides a fast-paced introduction to the overall album. The song tackles the feelings of being trapped- promising to start making changes to your life tomorrow but that tomorrow never comes.
‘Babyface‘ is the first full length release from the band, a follow up to their EP ‘Juno Goes to the Big House‘ which was released in 2021.
‘Babyface’ is out on May 12th. You can order HERE.
