“So brilliant, so abstract, and so interesting” — BBC Radio 1

“…from aggressive to hymnal, sometimes noisy, sometimes catchy [..] tight, powerful sounding alternative rock” — VISIONS

“Very exciting new rock band from Hamburg” — RBB Fritz

Fiery indie punk band PLAIINS have released new single “C’est La Vie.”

It’s the fourth track from their upcoming debut album Happy Faces, set for release on August 15 via Long Branch Records.

“‘C’est La Vie’ is about my excitement to move to Hamburg and take the plunge,” says frontman Chris Reardon. “I was so sick of London at that point. The cost of the city and the difficulty of breaking into the industry. Meetings with labels and deals on the table, the excitement then nothing, over and over to the point that I set up my own label and started releasing music and getting out there. But it was tough and I was so ready to leave.”

PLAIINS have been on a steamroller since their inception in late 2020. Having played with the likes of ITCHY, Cold Years, LEAP, Press Club, and many more, the band in 2024 signed with Long Branch Records/SPV and is pleased to soon present their debut album Happy Faces. The hard-working group has already released over 20 songs to date, regularly hitting the top playlists on Spotify since the beginning as well as features on BBC Radio 1BBC IntroducingKERRANG chart, and RBB fritz. There’s no stopping their momentum. PLAIINS bring a unique blend of British punk, indie and rock, pulling inspiration from the likes of IDLES, Hives, Soft Play, Bad Nerves, The Streets, and Viagra Boys.
