WALL STREET RIOTS will be putting out a self-release of the eagerly awaited single ‘One More Ride’ on 28th September.
The London band are made up of Charlie Cosser – Vocals, Rich Cooper – Drums, Mike Kruger – Bass and Karnig Karayan – Guitar.
‘One More Ride’ is backed with a very special remix of the single by LostProphet Ian Watkins under his L’Amour La Morgue side project.
Their debut, an EP titled ‘Playground Politics’, was released digitally back in May and caused an online frenzy when sites and blogs praised them with 5/5 reviews and tipped them as the next big thing.
Although Wall Street Riots are fairly new, the musical style that blazes through in their music has been a long time in its evolution. Karnig and Charlie started out by playing nu-metal and pop-punk songs in their early teens with Mike joining once the duo began to get into hardcore and post-hardcore. After trying out numerous drummers over the years that followed, the band found Rich, honing their sound into more of a raw and aggressive pop approach.
WSR are known for their riotous live performances at clubs and all-ages gigs. The band have been running their own monthly night RIOT HOUSE which has gone down a storm – police were called after fans were rioting outside the last one at the Barfly.
The band will be touring the UK this Autumn.
Live dates:
16 October Hot Damn! w/ The Dead Formats, Spycatcher @Purple Turtle, London
