arxx

For their 2nd LP, these local joy merchants injected their vibrant punk ethos with an electronic pop energy that’s pure, crystallised abandon.

They aimed to spread queer euphoria through every soaring hook and propulsive kick drum, in a heady explosion of uplifting vocals and cavorting synthlines. By God did they succeed!  Arxx not what they can do for you, Arxx what you can do for them! ARXX are on a mission to spread queer joy: the sort that they longed to see when they were younger, and that they’ve been increasingly visible champions of since emerging with their first material. It’s a message that’s always been a core tenet of the Brighton band, formed of vocalist Hanni Pidduck and drummer Clara Townsend, but that’s become progressively more loud and proud as the duo have explored and embraced their own identities. And, following a concentrated period of monumental growth - both as a musical unit and, crucially, as people - second album, ‘Good Boy’, arrives as a bright and brilliant testament to this journey.
