Indie rock stars The K’s hit back with energetic ‘No Place Like Home’

Fast-paced and in-your-face, indie rockers The K’s are not wasting any time in 2024 with their second single ‘No Place Like Home’.

Written by band members Jamie Boyle and Ryan Breslin, the song is deep-rooted and personal for the four-piece.

‘No Place Like Home’ is exactly what you’d expect from The K’s, Full-on, velocious and ferocious.

Speaking on the track, the band said: “‘No Place Like Home’ is a story of the weekly occurrence of anxiety and panic attacks every Sunday.

“Starting with an initial feeling of confusion as to why your body feels like it’s fighting to survive closely followed by the panic that sets in as you retrace your steps through the night before.

“The dreaded “beer fear” and financial hardship that makes you promise you’ll never do it again – only to do the exact same the weekend after.

“The song constantly battles to try and find a balance between the temporary tranquillity that comes with being intoxicated and the harsh reality of the longer term effects it has on both physical and mental health.”

Accompanying the release is the official video which features a teenager putting on a cassette of the band, dancing around the streets, and using the music as a form of escapism, interspersed with scenes of the band performing the track.

‘No Place Like Home’ follows on from previous single ‘Heart On My Sleeve’, the first single to be released from their hugely anticipated debut album ‘I Wonder If The World Knows’. The album, which can be pre-ordered here has already received thousands of pre-orders and is available on Vinyl, Cassette, CD and all digital platforms. Speaking about the upcoming release, Jamie says:

“The long wait is nearly over, and we are finally on the brink of releasing our debut album. I Wonder If The World Knows is a written journey throughout the last couple of years of our lives throughout the ups, the downs and everything in between. We’ve put our heart and soul into making the perfect record and we can’t wait for you to hear it.”

Their debut album is released via thriving Manchester indie imprint LAB Records and the confirmed tracklisting is as follows:
