Are you tired of the same old naughties rock/punk bands blasting from your radio as you drive through night rain or head-bang in your bedroom? Yeah me too, that’s why I couldn’t wipe the smile off of my face when listening to, ‘Hold your apologies’, the blast from the past single from Minami Deguchi. - FREDDIE MCKEE

The classic sounds of round toms, raunchy guitars throwing power chords this way and that and belting harmonies throw this single up there with the 00s greats. Strap in and have a listen, you won’t regret it.

Minami Deguchi is releasing bangers left, right and centre and ‘Hold your apologies’ stands out amongst them as a showcase of his musical talent and understanding of the hard rock/punk genre. The sound is so distilled that it could have only come from a true fan of the music. The rattling bass supports the vocals in the quieter verse sections and a chorus of backing harmonies explodes in the chorus to give us a sound that could fill a stadium. Minami Deguchi is far from done, being so young, and is already pushing great heights with his music. Jump on quick, because if ‘Hold your apologies’ is anything to go by, you won’t want to miss this rock and roll train as it soars into the sky.
