While UK unit Split Chain have been racking up millions of streams over the past year through a series of bleak-grooved, self-released singles, the rising act have now officially teamed-up with veteran punk label Epitaph Records for their next release. Better yet, the self-described “nu-gaze” group’s “(Re)-Extract” is a dark-spiraling revamp of an early hit, though it now also features grungy Canadian duo Softcult.

A press release explains that the new single is in fact a slightly reworked version of their 2023 song “Extract,” and accordingly shoves into a similar series of wavy, detuned guitar melodies and breathy, Deftones-ish vocals. Those sighs and screams on the addiction-themed piece are now complemented by extra melodies from Softcult members Phoenix and Mercedes Ann-Horn. You can see all parties bound along to the tune in the music video up above.

I caught them opening for MUSE in Toronto, and their vibe is just chef’s kiss. That mix of dreamy shoegaze with gritty punk energy hits hard. Their lyrics are so raw and real, especially on stuff like empowerment and the state of the world.

Welp, I'm jealous.

Well, its a helluva way to spend Valentines day, loud and grungy.
Sadly they only had 40mins on stage as they were the opener for Lights but still a great show.
