A queer indie-punk love letter to learning to accept all that life throws at you, with big sing-along choruses and heart-on-sleeve lyrics about relationships, friendship and gender. Hitchin-based indie-punk 4 piece Brutalligators are back with their 2nd album, Still Here, a powerful, cathartic, and joyously loud collection of songs about survival, identity, and moving forward. From shout-along anthems to intimate confessions, the album explores grief, friendship, queer identity, aging, and that ever-complicated feeling of simply trying to exist. Following 2021's This House is Too Big, This House is Too Small, the new record marks a sonic and emotional evolution for the band - trading heartbreak and endings for resilience, and healing, bringing the raw energy of Brutalligators debut with more melodic moments, blending the indie punk of PUP and Menzingers with the cleaner indie sound of Future Teens and Weezer. Still Here is an album with the mantra of "I'm still here, and I'm alive" says vocalist/guitarist Luke Murphy (they/them). "Looking at how me and my identity hasn't been accepted in the past, and focusing on the attitude of 'fuck you, I am who I am, this is what makes me me'".
