Due out for release on 23rd January through the renowned Young & Lost Club label is ʻWe Never Win,ʼ the debut single from London-based alt-rockers Whales in Cubicles. Watch the video for this bubbling call-to-arms below.
With a band name taken from an Andrew Bird song, itʼs clear to see the boys in Whales in Cubicles have done their research. Musically, the band evoke a huge variety of influences from American greats such as Guided by Voices and Sebadoh, to songwriters such as Neil Young and Stephen Malkmus, all the way through to British heroes Black Sabbath, Blur and Radiohead.
Having grown up in his native Italy, frontman Stef Bernardi developed a fixation with Anglo-American culture and, as such, took a pilgrimage across the English-speaking world, taking in as much music as he could before finally settling in London. Playing in numerous UK-based bands since arriving on Englandʼs shores, Stef found musical-kindred spirits in Leo, Alex and Jamie, and Whales in Cubicles was born. The band created the trackʼs accompanying video themselves, a further example of their DIY attitude.
