Garage Rock from 9 o’clock Nasty

Leicester-based alternative outfit 9 o’clock Nasty take no prisoners with their swaggering rock sound. At the core of their music sits gritty guitars, driving beats and melody-focused vocal lines and harmonies.

Bringing the DIY style of 90s garage rock firmly into the 21st century, they offer their own authentic sonic vision. After releasing a string of singles over the last two years, they’ve carved out a fanbase eager for their raw indie rock vibes.

With a new album set for release in May, called By All Means Necessary, they now bring us their recent EP, Sex. Featuring three tracks that perfectly capture their rhythmic and catchy rock writing, the EP covers themes from jealousy, relationships and ego they deliver another collection of work that charms and engages in equal measure.

Commenting on the creation of the EP’s opening track “Do Me Too”, the band offers, “We were sitting in a bar. That’s how most of our stories start. It’s our village pub, it is quiet and that’s how we like it. This night though there was a couple on the next table. They were drunk and they were talking a little bit too loudly. Gradually everyone started to listen. It seems they had been chatting to someone on the internet. They had arranged to meet this person for a threesome.”

Continuing, “Both of them were clearly excited by the idea but they got talking about jealousy. One of them said, quite openly, I do not know how you will feel when you see me with another person like that. I want it, I know it is your fantasy, but it might feel weird. The other replied with complete confidence. “Do not worry. It will be OK. Just remember, whatever you do, just do it to me too and we’ll be fine.” We just looked at each other and left the bar, went to the studio and wrote the song then and there.”
