'di Arfar

The Routines' debut album. Written about life from a working-class town where people work for the council all their lives, holiday in the same place every year and only speak passive aggressively.

You can hear the influences of IDLES, Arctic Monkeys, Reef, The Verve and The Libertines among others, there's a real mash of Indie vs Post-punk. Never has monotonous life sounded so loud and in your face.

We are The Routines. Four friends from Caernarfon, North Wales. Dion Jones on Lead Vocals and Guitar, Jamie Thomas on Bass Guitar, Tom Hayes on Guitar and Gethin Magee on Drums and Backing Vocals. Influenced by the humdrum life of full-time menial work in a place where even that is scarce and sought after. Big listeners of Pete Doherty's work, Sleaford Mods and other hard-hitting bands with spot on social observations, we have found what we like to write and sing about.
We like who and what we are and we do not hide behind a story of ourselves in our lyrics or in our demeanour. Our live shows are what we live for and they are extremely energetic. Jumping off platforms and into the crowd is a regular occurrence.
Having released a few Welsh language singles followed by a couple of English titles, we're gearing up for the release of our debut album 'Does It Work For You?', out on the 14th December 2019.
