Fame, Filters, and Fury: Splinter’s “Get A Job” Hits Hard
Splinter’s “Get A Job” is a razor-edged anthem for a generation teetering between hustle culture and digital delusion. With their trademark snarl and distortion-heavy punch, the London-based punk outfit pulls no punches in their lead single off Click. Swipe. Buy., a record already shaping up to be one of the year’s most defiant releases.
From the first beat, “Get A Job” is all bark, all bite, a wall of sound that rattles the spine and refuses to be ignored. But beyond the blistering riffs and primal drums lies a deeper ache: a commentary on a world that celebrates curated personas and overnight fame while shaming honest labor. Splinter isn’t just angry, they’re exhausted, amused, and unapologetically vocal about it.
The track’s brilliance lies in its tone, part satirical, part savage. You can practically feel the eye-rolls in the vocals, delivered with the urgency of a protest chant and the sarcasm of a late-night meme scroll. It’s catchy, chaotic, and cuts right through the noise of digital distraction.
If this is the first taste of what Click. Swipe. Buy. has to offer, then Splinter isn’t just calling out the rot, they’re torching the entire façade. In a world of empty influencer dreams, “Get A Job” is a loud, messy, beautiful wake-up call.
