Reminders release debut album: "Best of Beach Punk"

originally published: 04/03/2022


Isle of Wight indie punks Reminders have released their debut album Best of Beach Punk, via Venn Records (UK) and Wiretap Records (USA). The record is available to order now on CD and 12" vinyl: USA / UK

Lead single "Carousel" was released earlier this year and picked up a groundswell of support from BBC Radio 1, Kerrang! Radio, Triple J, Rock Sound Magazine, Brooklyn Vegan, UPSET and more. On March 18, 2022, the band released a music video for "Post Paris Blues."

Reminders approach punk rock from where they know it best: a forgotten seaside town. Formed on the Isle of Wight in 2017, the band cut their teeth writing songs about teenage lust and suburban boredom, gaining attention after they independently released debut single Water Sports and Major Cities. Fresh-faced and excited, the then-teenagers coined their sound 'beach punk'; a tongue-in-cheek ode to their hometown that they stand by today.

Firmly solidifying their identity as breakneck but bubblegum, a pop-tinged punk band, Reminders work to introduce themselves to anybody willing to listen. After an unexpected hiatus during COVID which delayed the release of their album, the band are now raring and ready to go with their new label homes at Venn and Wiretap and forthcoming tour dates.

Already championed at radio by BBC Radio 1, BBC 6Music and BBC Introducing, as well as landing placements on esteemed Spotify and Apple Music editorial playlists alike, they were labelled 'scorching slacker pop' by the influential CLASH Magazine, dubbed 'About to Break' by UPSET Magazine, and have already shared stages with rock legends and pop stars Liam Gallagher, The Killers, and Camila Cabello.
