Peer Pleasure + Big Trousers
Peer Pleasure + Big Trousers
Bad Men, Worse Tunes.
Peer Pleasure are one big Dysfunctional family, founded as a lockdown project and existing as a groupchat long before a band.
Featuring a collective of members from the south east of Ireland the band mixes elements of Noise, Blues, Garage and Punk music with an unhealthy Cynicism, Absurdist humour, Parish hall level resent and a healthy dose of Bare Knuckle call outs and other video nasties.
The Bands music has received praise from outlets such as So Young Magazine, Hot Press, The Goo and Nialler9 and have been featured on the BBC 6's New Music Fix and Indie Forever. Playing over 150 shows since 2022 everywhere from Pub Backrooms, Theatre Spaces, Belgian Squats and international festivals, Peer Pleasure will play anywhere, anytime and under any conditions.
Postmodern power-duo BIG TROUSERS bring a unique brand of volume, energy and eccentricity to UK and international stages. The band draw from progressive rock and post-punk to construct their spoken-word, experimental sound. Sharing stages like the Windmill Brixton with bands such as Man/Woman/Chainsaw and Heavy Lungs since their formation in 2023, the two-piece continue to push their sound with unapologetic oddity, navigating meme culture, social satire and existential dread.
With their sophomore EP, “WHAT WE TALK ABOUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE INTERNET”, the duo offer a surreal window into online relationships. It features the band’s signature absurdist lyrics and acrobatic guitar playing, and scrambles its way through a stacked lineup of zany narrators and even zanier riffs. From a meditation on failed stardom to a protagonist in love with Microsoft PowerPoint to a doomscrolling monologue set to a midwest emo instrumental, these 5 tracks will have you wondering just how funny the internet actually is.
