Emerging “power punk” sensations Kid Kapichi have released a brand new single “Newsnight”. The energetic cross-examination is one of four new recordings featured on the band’s digital deluxe version of their sophomore album “There Goes The Neighbourhood”, out now on Spinefarm.
“In a world where alternative facts rule and the post-truth era is in full effect – who can we trust? The all-seeing eye of first-person phone footage provides the world with an unfiltered account of events as they unfold; and when that doesn’t match up with the broadsheet headline or the scripted dialogue of your local news anchor, we must ask what the agenda truly is.
‘Newsnight’ questions whether the media want us well informed or scared & divided; duped into squabbling over toilet roll while atrocities are committed overseas & on home turf, only to be intentionally distorted and misreported by the big brother of mainstream media. We say stay vigilant and always question the narrative. Not in a tin foil hat way though; the earth is round.”
The new digital deluxe version of their acclaimed album “There Goes The Neighbourhood” features two new songs, “Newsnight” and “The Sun Never Sets On Planet Cool” and two live recordings, “Artillery” and “New England” featuring Dumb Buoys Fishing Club, recorded at The O2 Forum Kentish Town.
Currently laying waste to venues across Europe with Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, vocalist/guitarist Jack Wilson commented, “Last time we were out on the road with Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes was in 2019 before anybody had even heard of the word Covid or even the words ‘Kid Kapichi’. It’s safe to say Frank gave us our first break as a band and we owe him and the rest of the guys a lot. This tour is going to be a real celebration of our love for them and all of you in Europe. You know we can’t stay away too long.”
Kicking off 2025 in style, Kid Kapichi will join the likes of Parkway Drive, Nothing More and The Struts on the ShipRocked Cruise starting in Miami. Next spring, four-piece will join You Me At Six on select dates of their farewell tour The Final Nights Of Six. While on this run, Kid Kapichi will play a string of intimate shows on their Up Close & Personal ..Back To The Neighbourhood tour which is set to be raucous! Setting course for next summer, the band were also announced for 2000 Trees last week.
