The Copenhagen punk/hardcore band SYL drills its way into the pain with the new EP 'afmagt' (Danish for ‘powerlessness') on June 7th, 2024, via Audible Records, and thus following up on their debut album 'alt godt' from 2022.
On 'afmagt,' you'll encounter a SYL with an expanded expression, which has become both harder and softer at the respective ends of the dynamic spectrum. The music is unmistakably SYL with its frayed, aggressive mix of punk, hardcore, and metallic subgenres, never compromising on the hook and melody, thus engaging both the audience and the band itself.
All the songs on 'afmagt' touch on a feeling of powerlessness in various relations, but most notably towards the political structures that contribute to undermining human relationships, a just society, and the planet's future.
