Introducing the explosive debut single from the post-punk powerhouse duo, The Exact Opposite. No strangers to the music scene, singer/guitarist Jamie Stuart and drummer/multi-instrumentalist Nigel Powell have joined forces to bring listeners a raw and unapologetic sound that will leave you wanting more. Titled “You Work For Us,” this track is just a glimpse of what’s to come from The Exact Opposite’s upcoming album, “Skill Issue.”
With influences ranging from the legendary Fugazi to The Police and REM, their sonic blend is like a firecracker that’s about to go off. Recorded in the renowned studio of Jonny Greenwood (from Radiohead and The Smile), “You Work For Us” is a hard-hitting song that addresses the band’s core themes of perseverance and determination in their artistic pursuits. “If we were a jazz band, people would go ‘These guys have matured with age’,” says Nigel, “but with this album, we’re proving that age doesn’t define our passion and talent.”
