about
Belfast band New Pagans are back with brand new music following the success of their latest EP Glacial Erratic, and have shared the powerful new track ‘Yellow Room’.
The band use their creative influence to challenge past and present issues surrounding relationships, equality, history, and gender, all wrapped up in their alternative, post-punk, indie rock style. With ‘Yellow Room’ the band tackle another important topic surrounding the issue of motherhood within the music industry and the lack of support for women with perinatal mental health needs, particularly in Northern Ireland.
This often-muted subject is something that personally hits home with lead singer and lyricist Lyndsey McDougall who is a mother herself. The track is based on the short story ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ by American writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman, which is celebrated as an important piece of early American feminist literature.
indie rock with only a dash of post-punk. What makes it stand out is not just the catchy and sticky post-punk influences or the outstanding vocals, but also the message. dcdirkzwager
This album has been played constantly over the last week. Such an outstanding achievement - the warm mixture of electronics, acoustic instrumentation and vocals are underpinned by a real sense of darkness and menace that goes hand in hand with the real beauty of this record. Tim White
