Sorry share new track and video, "As The Sun Sets"

Praise for Sorry:
"this band sings only to the night: a mildly debauched rock habitat populated by needy souls hotly pursuing ill-advised romances." – THE NEW YORKER
"rolls out like a smoky cabaret pop-up at a techno club" – BROOKLYN VEGAN
"a band scratching at the dark side of humanity" – FADER
"Sorry sound like no one else" – PASTE
"dark, creative, powerful and incredibly exciting." – AMERICAN SONGWRITER
"their anxious yearnings are aptly soundtracked by bouncy, fidgeting rhythms and sharp guitars"–CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND
"This is a young group that doesn't want to be pinned down" – PITCHFORK
"the music is good; it’s really, really good" – NOISEY

North London’s Sorry have today revealed new track & video "As The Sun Sets", the final preview of their eagerly anticipated debut record, 925, out this Friday March 27

The band have also shared news that their upcoming U.K. headline tour, which was due to culminate in a hometown show in London, has sadly been postponed in light of the current global health crisis. Tickets for the postponed dates will remain valid for the rescheduled shows and the band will share new dates come April.

“As The Sun Sets” comes accompanied by a feverish visual directed by Flasha, aka Sorry’s Asha Lorenz, and produced by Poppy Ashton. “As The Sun Sets”, along with “Right Round The Clock” (A Listed by BBC Radio 6 Music in late 2019), “More” (currently on the playlist at 6 Music), and previous single “Snakes” all feature on the band’s thrilling and hotly-tipped debut.


Together with co-producer James Dring (Gorillaz, Jamie T, Nilüfer Yanya), best friends and Sorry co-conspirators Asha Lorenz and Louis O’Bryen have woven 925 like a dreamscape in which idyllic and hellish scenes intermingle, forcing the question of what is real and what is make believe. Inspired by everything from Hermann Hesse to (Sandy) Alex G, their precocious approach —an open-mindedness towards genre, self-producing the music, and directing accompanying videos—marks them out as a thoroughly 21st century band.

Joined by drummer Lincoln Barrett, multi-instrumentalist Campbell Baum, and new member Marco Pini on electronics, 5-piece Sorry emerged from a thriving scene of bands in London, and though 925 is their debut album, it is by no means their first statement. It follows a series of sporadically-released singles and mixtapes, used as a way to experiment with the disparate influences that give 925 its distinctively modern, apocalyptic sound. 

While Sorry's singles have earned them praise as most vital and relentlessly creative new British bands of the moment, 925 is a debut record which will undoubtedly cement their status as true originals and cross-genre innovators in 2020 and beyond.

Sorry Tour Dates
05-24 - Villette Sonique - Paris, FR
06-13 - Best Kept Secret - Hilvarenbeek, NL
07-19 - Latitude Festival - Suffolk, UK

925 is available to pre-order now on LP, CD and digital formats. An exclusive limited edition of the LP is also available via Domino Mart, including a 7" single of the band's debut release, “Drag King / Prickz”.
