1st Song Music - Rock | October 2025

Naarm/Melbourne 4-piece screensaver is back with a double A-side 7-inch single just 6-months after delivering their 10-track debut album Expressions of Interest on Upset the Rhythm to positive international response. See praise for the record on Maximum Rock ‘n’ Roll, KEXP, and Post Trash. The album has also been a regular feature on Henry Rollin’s KCRW Santa Monica radio show.

The band return with two distinctly different tracks that extend upon the blend of post-punk, new wave and synth-punk on their debut. Side A, Clean Current is a burst of high-energy: nervy guitars and groovy base underpinned with krautrock drums and cosmic synth noise, overlayed with delay heavy vocals. Repeats is the flipside of the coin, a moody post-punk stomper, led by gritty saw tooth synth, chorus-soaked guitar, textural percussion and soaring vocals. Lyrically Clean Current spits out retorts aimed at the engulfing nature of anxiety whilst Repeats critiques the repetition of modern life, languishing human existence.
Clean Current nods it’s head to likes of Snapper and 80s Flying Nun bands whilst Repeats owes it origins more to the progenitors of goth-rock.

Foliage - Pet Sematary (Ramones)

Strange Anxiety is the debut single by Melbourne band screensaver.  A piece of synth driven dark-wave flexing some glam influenced guitar work with disparate vocals, pounding toms and a weaving bass line create cold tones that resolve beautifully to moments of warmth. The lyrical content mines the collective conscious of unease and tension. The single was recorded, mixed and produced by guitarist Christopher Stephenson, mastered by Aaron Schroeder
