ANTHMZ are led by Kyle “MammaBear” Gordon and Houston B Perry III, a pair who came together through a shared boredom of mindless pop crazes and a desire to do things differently. They filled out the line-up with Matt Foster and Mark Garretson and the band was born.

Their debut single Soft Core tells a story of self-sabotage, self-doubt and keeping people at arm’s length through a pleading and passionate rock number that comes hard with some big riffs and a move-inducing rhythm. It’s rock for lovers of the old school, bringing elements of Britpop in its anthemic chorus.

Soft Core will feature on the EP of the same name, set for release this August. The single is out now and you can check out its video below.
