Itch isn’t here to fit neatly into a genre. Formed over a decade ago in Leeds, they spent years honing a sound that’s too jagged for indie, too melodic for post-hardcore, and too chaotic to pin down. Inspired by bands like The White Octave, Spy Vs Spy, and …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead, they mix screamo energy with intricate, mathy guitars and a heavy dose of northern humour.
Their latest album, An Illusion Of Grandeur From A One Trick Pony, is proof of that evolution—tight but loose, intense but never self-serious. Tracks like ‘Big.Clever’ and ‘This Place Is Full Of Dinosaurs…’ are packed with shifting rhythms, sharp hooks, and anthemic moments that hit hard without trying too hard. It’s post-rock with vocals, but no pretension. Just raw, blistering energy from a band that refuses to sit still.
For fans of bands who never cared about the rulebook.
