Dying 4 turns Scunthorpe misfit energy into Strafe and calls it Perish Songs

Dying 4 arrives on 30 June as the solo outlet for Blue Bendy guitarist Joe Nash, and Strafe immediately sounds like a project built from old subcultural friction and new production instincts. Perish Songs is due 4 September via Practise Music, but the lead single already sets the scene: Scunthorpe youth tribes, skaters, emos, hardstyle speakers in town squares and the weird electricity of growing up somewhere that made difference feel both exciting and risky. Nash keeps the setup tight, limiting the Dying 4 language to electric guitar, drums and vocals developed on a laptop, but Strafe apparently twists that rock skeleton through Ableton and into a non-rock shape. That is the interesting part. It is not Blue Bendy miniaturized. It is guitar-world being forced through UK garage, Midwest emo memory and art-rock anxiety until the misfit haircut finally starts dancing.
