London five-piece Y have put out their latest single Skipper, ahead of a string of seasonal shows across the UK in 2025. The new track is a fast-paced, synth-and-guitar driven affair with flashes of old-school ska and modern-day punk. Co-vocalist Sophie Coppin sounds like a 21st-century Siouxsie, all frantic and wild-eyed. It brings a touch of the strange and cryptic to a saturated genre and leaves an impression far beyond its runtime.
Skipper is out now via Hideous Mink Records.
