"Gills" is Gender Roles’ most feel-good track to date

22 March 2018, 15:38 | Written by Ben Lynch

Brighton-based trio Gender Roles follow up on previous singles "Plastic" and "About Her" with another killer pop-punk tune, "Gills".

At only one minute forty in length, lead singer Tom Bennett finds himself confronted with two issues, namely being unable to drink upside down and swim underwater. In only two verses and a couple of chorus’ to match, he finds his answers in the turning the right way round and, somewhat more alarmingly, growing gills.

Arguably their most feel-good track to date, it nonetheless boasts the same kind of hook and feel to their first EP, Planet X-Ray, and continues the band’s excellent 2017 form with panache.

"Gills" is taken from the band’s forthcoming EP, Lazer Rush, due for release 13 April.
