South Wales newcomers Morn shared their debut single ‘Modern Man’ on Speedy Wunderground as part of the Speedy Single Series.

Morn are a striking new presence emerging from the farmlands of Monmouth, South Wales. Two sets of siblings crafting a compelling blend of what they refer to as “doom over beautiful chords.” Announcing their arrival with the breathless, runaway train chaoticism of ‘Modern Man’, Morn weave spiky guitar passages and rumbling fuzz, with an urgency that feels as though they can’t get to the end of the song fast enough. With its nihilistic gang vocal of “Life is sh*t when you’re all alone, but it’s fine”, and its spiral into an unhinged closing chorus of “La la la”s, Morn are marking themselves out early as a dextrous band that are happy wrestling bedlam into something cathartic. ‘Modern Man’ is a thrilling introduction to a band just getting started.

Vocalist and guitarist Oliver Riba comments: “Modern Man came from the wild urgency of our lives. Born from teenage riffs, shaped by laughter, anger, and fear. It’s a desperate sprint through the loneliness and madness of routine, a strange reflection on the dream of escape. It felt right that it was all captured live, and Dan Carey really brought it to life with a touch of his magic. Welcome to the world of Morn.”
