about

“...this atmospheric track solidifies the subversive nature of the band.” - Little Indie Blogs, January 2021

2021 sees the release of ‘Paraffin’ the third single from A Cause In Distress out on Southend on Sea based label Cool Thing Records.
A Cause In Distress are not your traditional band - the sound of 3 friends trapped inside a digital landscape; consisting of an enigmatic visual artist, a prodigal singer-songwriter and an ambitious beat-maker. It’s a fresh sound that fuses the throbbing electronica of WARP Records luminaries Boards Of Canada with the raw passion and energy of Discord Records DIY Punks Fugazi.

‘Paraffin’ builds on the themes of the first two critically acclaimed singles with its hypnotic synths, razor wire guitars, chest thumping rhythms and hauntingly distant vocals, perfect for the present.
Produced by long term Cool Thing Records collaborator Rees Broomfield (Beckie Margaret, Indian Queens, BLAB & Private Jetlag).


A Cause In Distress describe the release of their new single:
“Negative thoughts are harmful if consumed for too long over an extended period. The same can be said for paraffin lamp fumes in a poorly ventilated room. This song draws comparisons between the risk of hazards that you cannot see or touch, whether they be floating around the mind, or floating around the air we breathe.”
