Over the course of the past nine months or so, <strong>ITYIWEY<\/strong> has dropped a hat-trick of singles to keep them in our consciousness. <em>&#8216;Get Terrified&#8217;<\/em> sees those singles brought together along with a disjointed closer. But more on that later.<\/p>\n<p>The title track calmly opens proceedings with its twee harmonies, plucky guitars and rich brass swells. Described as <em>&#8220;a love song about class consciousness&#8221;<\/em>, it sees Joey Ashworth plead for acceptance as they unleash a tirade of angst &#8211; <em>&#8220;Did you plan me when you made the world? Do you know my pronouns?&#8221;<\/em> Complimented by a full band punk-fuelled assault, it&#8217;s an addictive opener with a commendable structure.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Mourn&#8217;<\/em> stylistically follows a similar pattern, yet the intimate guitars are delivered with charm as they drift along while Ashworth questions <em>&#8220;How did you know know the deceased?&#8221;<\/em> Like <em>&#8216;Get Terrified&#8217;<\/em>, its fiery conclusion is definitely rewarding.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"itoldyouiwouldeatyou - Get Terrified [Official Video]\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eEubQGFwwzo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Divine Violence&#8217;<\/em> is considerably <strong>ITYIWEY<\/strong> at their most confrontational as Ashworth touches upon on being alienated as non-binary and bisexual and centrism in the current British political climate. Guitarist Josh See&#8217;s atmospheric finger taps and Sean Westall&#8217;s textured drums serve as the backbone to the stirring number. It&#8217;s clear <strong>ITYIWEY<\/strong> aren&#8217;t afraid to incorporate various genres as<em> &#8216;Divine Violence&#8217;<\/em> ends in a flurry of post-hardcore angst.<\/p>\n<p>For those hearing <strong>ITYIWEY<\/strong> for the first time, these three tracks are an ideal introduction to their blend of thought-provoking lyrics, genre-blending style and pop sensibilities. Yet when it comes to <em>&#8216;Off Brand&#8217;<\/em>, things take an uneventful turn. Produced by vocalist\/sampler Holly Readman under her &#8216;NALA&#8217; moniker, it&#8217;s a detached finale that wallows in disengaging electronica.<\/p>\n<p>Besides that minor blip, the future for <strong>itoldyouiwouldeatyou<\/strong> is bright.<em> &#8216;Get Terrified&#8217; <\/em>flourishes with musical richness and the beginnings of a band finding their own identity.<\/p>\n<p>3.5\/5<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Get Terrified&#8217;<\/em> EP by\u00a0<strong>itoldyouiwouldeatyou\u00a0<\/strong>is released on 20th April on <strong>Alcopop!
