Work Sucks, and Durry Knows It in New Single "Coming of Age"
Sibling alt-rock duo Durry dukes it out with the rat race of late-stage capitalism in their latest indie-rock anthem, "Coming of Age." The single, according to the pair, is a modern rendition of Dolly Parton's famous hit "9 to 5," protesting the soul-sucking monotony of corporate America and rebelling against the traditional office job as the duo gains the ability to quit their jobs and pursue music full time.
"Coming of Age" opens with the sweet, nostalgic tones of dial-up Internet and subtle, twinkling keys. Suddenly, listeners are catapulted into a sonic space full of raging guitar riffs, robust bass lines, retro-inspired synths, and crashing percussion, a blend that will inspire headbanging, even if you're trapped inside a cubicle. Austin's deep vocals paint a picture of dissatisfaction with the endless monotony that comes with climbing the corporate ladder, admitting on the climatic chorus, "I should have known better / Than to think that this could change/ I should've seen the pattern/ How disconnected I became."
The whimsical yet enraged music video features Austin and his sister Taryn going to work at their soul-sucking office jobs. Amid a desert of empty cubicles, scenes of the duo completing menial tasks are intercut with scenes of them raging out on their instruments, causing mischief, and ultimately leaving the office space with their belongings and the realization that they deserve better.
"Coming of Age" follows their previous single, "Who's Laughing Now," which dropped earlier this month and received widespread praise. Both songs will be featured on the duo's recently announced debut album, Suburban Legend, set to release September 8. On the upcoming debut LP, the band analyzes the perils of late-stage capitalism even further, along with themes of mental health, toxic masculinity, and Taco Bell. Along with the release of "Coming of Age," the band has announced a 25-city tour set for this fall, making stops at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, Racket in New York City, Lincoln Hall in Chicago, and more.
