Dublin’s Gurriers today share new single, ‘Nothing Happens Twice’, the third track to be lifted from their forthcoming album, Nobody’s Coming To Save You, set for release on 25 September 2026 via their new label home, Play It Again Sam. Fueled by scorching electric guitars and feverish intensity, ‘Nothing Happens Twice’ is an absurdist take on the state of the modern world, inspired by Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot. Blending existential lyricism with the “dead internet” theory, ‘Nothing Happens Twice’ explores the idea that online, we’re increasingly surrounded by bots rather than people, whilst further dissecting political unease, digital alienation and dark humour.
Harnessing a suffocating sense of stagnation, the infectious hook “nothing ever happens here, nothing happens twice” is amplified by vocalist Dan Hoff’s delivery, which bleeds with the frustration and disillusionment of the modern day. ‘Nothing Happens Twice’, serves as another statement of intent that accelerates the Dublin outfit’s rapid upward trajectory. The single follows the release of the album’s fierce and unflinching title track, ‘Nobody’s Coming To Save You’ and fan favourite, ‘Party Lines’. The accompanying video is directed by Thomas James (Kneecap, Bring Me The Horizon, Young Fathers).
Alongside the release, Gurriers have announced details for a UK outstore record shop tour in September, with dates in Dublin, Edinburgh, Dundee, Liverpool, Nottingham, Cardiff and Oxford. Spanning seven dates across seven cities, the tour highlights independent music retailers including Spindizzy, Assai Records, Jacaranda, Rough Trade and Truck Store.
Following a couple of years that saw Gurriers graduate from sweat-soaked clubs to festival main stages and arenas, the band are playing an extensive UK and European headline tour this autumn, including London’s Electric Brixton on 24 October and two major Dublin shows at Vicar Street and 3Olympia Theatre. Supporting the band on the tour each night will be one of Enola Gay, Tramhaus, Really Good Time or Child Of Prague.
The band will also perform at a run of festivals this summer, fresh from their recent show as special guests of Kneecap in Crystal Palace Park, London.
