�This track is designed to be short and sharp
both lyrically and instrumentally
� they pointedly explain. �Living standards and life expectancy have dramatically dropped for the majority of ordinary people in the UK over the last generation or so
and it often feels like we�re at once completely weightless and under extreme pressure � a little like being deep underwater.

�The demonization and punching-down that constitutes most of the mainstream discourse around debt
housing
poverty and precarity in this country only compounds the issue. The anger and absurdity of a track like �Leaking Drains� is driven by this stuff.�

In lieu of any impending live action (although rest assured the duo duly squeezed out a socially distorted Brixton Windmill show late last year in between lockdowns)
Scrounge will be appearing on a laptop near you at the fierce panda SXSW online showcase in March. Furiouser and furiouser�

�Oozing the duo�s epic
swirling wall of sound
Scrounge have blown me away once again
marking themselves out as definite ones to watch.� - Get In Her Ears
