SPRINTS return with "Feast" as first release without founding guitarist

"Feast" marks SPRINTS' first release with a new line-up that now features Zac Stephenson on guitar, following the amicable departure of founding member Colm O'Reilly. This follows previous standalone singles, "Drones" and "Help Me, I'm Spiralling", which came after their debut album, Letter To Self.

"Pulling from our love of grunge and gothic, Feast is named as such because it explores the idea of gluttony, consumption and desire, particularly when it comes to sexuality and romance," the band explains. "In Ireland a lot of our first conscious experience of storytelling happens to be religious, due in most parts to the interlinking of our Catholic Church and state, particularly in education. The Bible stories and fables of good, bad, morality and sin were always pressed upon us. I thought it was interesting to use this iconography and imagery reimagined in a queer context. Feast is dark, gothic and sensual, encouraging us to unapologetically pursue our wants and desires."
