An Electrifying Ode to City Life
Crank up the volume. Feel the rush. proFESSional just dropped an absolute firecracker with In The City, a track that captures the madness, frustration, and undeniable allure of city life. Taken from their upcoming LP, this post-punk powerhouse delivers a relentless sonic assault that’ll have you thrashing along before you even realize it.
From the first electrified riff, In The City slams you into its high-energy whirlwind. It’s jagged, raw, and brimming with anthemic urgency—think The Buzzcocks on a caffeine binge, or The Stooges with a modern, razor-sharp edge. The band cranks up the intensity, pairing driving basslines with scorching guitars, while frontman Mani’s vocals drip with the kind of reckless abandon that makes you want to shout the lyrics at the top of your lungs.
And then there’s the heart of the song—the love/hate relationship with the city. Mani captures the duality perfectly: the late-night euphoria, the endless hustle, and the infuriating chaos that somehow keeps you coming back for more. You don’t just listen to In The City; you feel it in your bones. It’s a track meant for dimly lit venues, sweaty crowds, and the kind of mosh pits that leave you bruised but grinning.With support from BBC Introducing and tastemaker blogs already singing their praises, proFESSional are proving they’re not just another post-punk revival act—they’re here to carve out their own lane. If In The City is any indication, their upcoming LP is going to be a wild, unfiltered ride. Buckle up.
