3-Piece Punk-Rockers, Dumb Posh Hippies release latest single

Music Review | 29th March, 2025 Dumb Posh Hippies

Radiating enough energy to take the head off of any gig-goer, Dumb Post Hippies, ear-busting sound is spreading to the four corners of Ireland, and fast. From two-minute punkers, to five-minute psychedelic tracks, to remixed songs reimagined by some of the country's finest emerging producers, Dumb Posh Hippies are solidifying their place as Ireland's titan psych-punkers, who hold collaboration at their core.

The latest single, Parasitus Socialitus, showcases the band's heavier side with crunching guitar riffs and thick bass tones. The band is in full punk-rock mode until the track jumps back into a 60's inspired break.

The bones of the single is mainly based on two chords. I came with the song to the lads, with the riff and the lyrics fully done, and it developed to become another straight punker.

But in the rehearsal room, the jazz-influenced breakdown happened spontaneously, giving it a bit of a different edge. The lyrics are also pretty on the nose. We've all heard of a love letter, but the song is a bit of a hate letter, to the parasitic scenesters from past lives - Ciarán Fitz (Vocalist/Guitar)
