Watch: The Disorientating New Video From Rising Dublin Band, Rogue Opinions
Rogue Opinions are a youthful, three-piece rock band from Dublin on an upward trajectory.
Taking inspiration from the English punk rock movement of the 70's, Rogue Opinions -- Evan Carroll (guitar), Mark Carroll (drums) and Niall Duffy (lead-vocals, bass) -- incorporate sweet pop melodies into their kinetic indie-punk sound.
'Untouchable' is a hair-raising and confident first release that pokes at the idea of invincibility. This may be a musical journey taken often, but Rogue Opinions, with thrilling Kasabian-esque guitar-licks, manage to find a compelling way to avoid cliche.
The official music video is just as bold:
They released their debut EP, Untouchable in February of this year, recorded in Darklands Audio Recording Studio with production from Dan Doherty. Over the course of five days, the band recorded four songs.
‘Untouchable’ is the leading track of the EP and, alongside ‘What’s New With You’ has received nationwide airplay on RTÉ 2XM as well as local radio-stations.
Following the EP's release, they headlined a gig at The Button Factory. Just yesterday, the band were the opening act for Cider Wasps in Fibbers.
