FRESH ON THE NET 538 - MY FAVS

OUT 26 JULY 2024

Post Coal Prom Queen return with a beautiful and avant-garde new single - Protomartyr. The song has been a feature in the band's set since 2023 and has seen an incredible reception during their shows in the UK, Europe, and North America. If you'd like to get in touch please use the contact form below or contact postcoalpromqueen@gmail.com.

Protomartyr sees the duo turn their gaze away from the heavens and look towards the surreal world of the microscopic - exploring ideas of ancient gods and the origins of life, but with the band's characteristic human-centric approach. It is the first single from PCPQ since the success of their expansive and operatic album Music for First Contact.

Through glitchy beats and a return to a guitar-driven sound, Protomartyr pivots seamlessly from monastic chants to hauntological riffs to squalling noise. Sonically, it's a microcosm of the band's career to date - experimental, ambitious, and deeply human.

The track will be accompanied by a self-produced music video and a series of remixes from some of the most talent producers in and around Scotland. It will be followed by an EP of new material in the latter half of 2024.

Miserable Man

Earworm is a meta-commentary on music criticism; specifically those who don't engage in good faith. It's designed to provoke the haters by being disjointed and deeply irritating. But when they catch themselves walking down the street humming it? That's our twist of the knife. It's a deep cut concept track from our debut album, State of Disarray.

Electronica with a soul. Funky darkness with a heavy dose of melody and a film quote or two.
