Electropunk trio YARD are back with the second single from their forthcoming self-titled debut EP set for release in May. ‘Slumber’ is a pulsating fusion of techno beats and electronic rock. 2025 is shaping up to be an packed year YARD with a sold out UK tour supporting Chalk already in the books along with 20+ European festival dates confirmed thus far.
As the second single from their highly anticipated upcoming EP set for release in May, ‘Slumber’ takes inspiration from sonic heavyweights such as Death Grips, Nine Inch Nails and The Prodigy. A dystopian electronic journey, it is cinematic in scope, seamlessly blending euphoric techno rhythms with cascading synth walls and eerie guitars. The track balances sonic tension with explosive energy, capturing YARD’s signature mix of post-punk rock and electronica. As an instrumental track, ‘Slumber’ evokes an initial sense of confinement, tension, struggle and entrapment. Yet, as the song progresses, there is a sense of togetherness and escapism, a yearning to break loose from the expectations and routines of the mundane.
