Dublin band KLDD have released their new single,‘Tastes Like Tragedy’.KLDD wrote the song during the lockdown of 2021, born from a spontaneous jam session and recorded at Bluebird Studios in January 2022, the track was produced and engineered by frequent collaborator Declan Lonergan. KLDD will play their debut headline show on July 10th at The Grand Social Dublin, alongside Cork band The Drive on support duties.

‘Tastes Like Tragedy’ displays KLDD’s mature and tight sound through an impressive blend of spacious musicianship and a taut vocal delivery. The song pivots around this laid-back and at times nonchalant vocal delivery however, it’s the sweet meanderings on guitar that ignite passion and emotion within the song. The guitar boasts expressive soaring melodies between rumbling bass embellishments creating a soft tone and a sense of innocence throughout. ‘Tastes Like Tragedy’ is a joy to listen to. KLDD’s ability to slowly unleash their indie-rock vigour without overpowering the track’s airy vibe is impressive and showcases the talent of this band. Throughout the song the listener is treated to wonderful textures, emotive undertones and deft musicianship – the result is a sound that is both exhilarating and timeless.
