Trummerkind’s latest single, “Beauty Queen,” emerges as a haunting anthem that unveils the dark reality behind the glamour in a world suffocated by pursuing unattainable ideals. Based in Exeter, this band takes inspiration from the likes of My Chemical Romance and Rammstein but boldly forges their own path into the dark and desolate world of gothic dystopia with their raw and unapologetic punk-rock sound. Their music is a haunting blend of dark, brooding melodies and high-energy, fast-paced beats that captivate listeners. This band makes waves in alternative music with a unique and compelling sound.

“Beauty Queen” isn’t merely a song; it’s a visceral experience that grips you from the first note. Trummerkind masterfully weaves a harrowing narrative around Star, a young girl ensnared in the treacherous world of child pageantry. The track delves into the abyss of the obsession with success, pulling back the curtain on the grim struggles with drug abuse and body dysmorphia that often fester in the shadows of fame.

With influences ranging from the grandiosity of My Chemical Romance’s “Welcome to The Black Parade” to the electrifying audacity of Rammstein and Jeffrey Star’s no-holds-barred attitude, Trummerkind amalgamates these inspirations into an auditory journey like no other. The trio Rowen Silvester on vocals and bass guitar, Robert Silvester on drums, and Oli Sturdy on guitar have ingeniously engineered a sound that’s both avant-garde and nostalgic, a punk heartbeat fused with cyberpunk veins.

“Beauty Queen” doesn’t shy away from tackling the raw complexities of human emotions. It thrusts listeners into a realm where shattered dreams and the pursuit of personal liberation converge, all set against a toxic society built on deception. Trummerkind’s music isn’t just a passive listening experience; it’s a call to arms, a revolution against the conformity of the mainstream.

Recorded across Exeter and Brighton and meticulously mixed and mastered by Duncan Chave, “Beauty Queen” is a testament to Trummerkind’s commitment to their artistic vision. Their fearless, boundary-pushing approach amplifies the urgency of their message, redefining the punk-rock genre for the modern era.

Trummerkind stands tall as a beacon of innovation in a musical landscape often plagued by uniformity. This song is a sonic manifesto, an unfiltered reflection of a world teetering on the edge of its own illusions. Prepare to be transported into Trummerkind’s world of living a life built on the foundations of a toxic and deceitful falsehood, as “Beauty Queen” invites listeners to confront the adverse effects of perpetuating a facade and the toll it takes on one’s well-being. It’s a perfect addition to the genre’s playlist.
