Irish alt-rock band NEWDAD thrives with their powerful sound and introspective lyrics, forming a unique voice in the music scene. Their major-label debut album showcases their evolution from early singles to a more potent and immersive sound. NewDad find a winning immediacy and intimacy amid existential angst that’s reminiscent of the Cure, Wolf Alice or New Order – particularly thanks to Julie Dawson’s deadpan singing style, its candyfloss fragility concealing vicious lyrics.
