We say

Norwich-born, London-based newcomers Chest mark their return in striking style with ‘Machine’ - an urgent indie-rock release. Fresh from a run of sold-out headline shows and early support from BBC Radio 1 and BBC 6 Music, the five-piece channel the spiralling chaos of modern hyperconnectivity into a blistering, propulsive anthem. Produced by Thomas Coath (Sam Fender, Pale Waves), the track pairs pounding drums and jagged guitars with widescreen choruses, making it a track built for packed basements and big stages alike. Watch the video by M.Forsthy here. With echoes of Bloc Party, Everything Everything and Feeder shining through this anthemic number, Chest are a band to watch closely.
