Strange Company ‘Overrated’

Welsh’s three-piece rock outfit, Strange Company, rages back with a teeth-chattering emo-punk anthem. Born out of the lowest of lockdown, “Overrated” speaks about catastrophe and despair with double-dosed punk aesthetic while taking an emotive deeper dive into a familiar but truly horrid scenario—where one’s mind has turned against oneself.

They scratch your most nostalgic itch and offer something new to lose yourself into. Like a storm that takes your breath away and completely change the scene with a renewed perspective, Strange Company has a very distinctive sound that allows them to stand out in the crowds of genres.

“Overrated” sticks a middle finger to the naysayers’ face at the same time shedding light on mental health issues. Rebellion and resolution can exist in one place, so does angst and hope. In the intense turmoil and captivating sonics, “Overrated” in the end, is about how one would find their way out of the fearful sea.

The trio of Matt Davies, Owen Weston and Charlie Porter has over 20 years’ experience of writing, recording and touring under their belts and the stars have aligned for their time to roam. In 2022, Strange Company unleashed their debut album Metaphysical Love. With the new single and many more to come, they are here to make their marks.
