After a twelve-year hiatus, Velvetcut, the Finnish band known for their nostalgic ‘90s grunge and alternative rock sound, is making a triumphant return with the release of their new 4-track EP, Paranoid Inc., on October 3, 2024. This release marks the band's comeback and features the title track "Paranoid Inc." alongside three of their previous singles: "Do I Do," "Perfect American," and "Eating Machine."
Velvetcut's sound, reminiscent of iconic bands like Nirvana, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Weezer, has long captivated fans of grunge and alternative rock. Formed at the turn of the millennium, Velvetcut initially gained attention with their blend of gothic rock before evolving into a more energized and raw rock and roll style. Their discography, including one EP and three full-length albums, showcases their journey through various musical landscapes while maintaining the essence of grunge aesthetics.
Paranoid Inc. continues Velvetcut’s exploration of the gritty, melancholic textures of the ‘90s grunge era. The EP pays homage to their influences, with tracks like "Eating Machine," originally released on April 5, 2024—a date significant for grunge fans as it coincides with the anniversaries of Kurt Cobain’s and Layne Staley’s deaths. The new single "Paranoid Inc." embodies the raw energy and unpolished emotion that defined Seattle’s grunge scene, blending heavy riffs with introspective lyrics.
Velvetcut has a long-standing history in the Finnish music scene, having performed at major festivals like Provinssirock. Now, under the banner of Rockhopper Music, this new EP promises to rekindle the band’s connection with longtime fans while attracting a new generation of grunge and alternative rock enthusiasts.
Don’t miss the release of Paranoid Inc. on October 3, 2024—an EP that serves as both a tribute to the enduring legacy of ‘90s grunge and a fresh chapter in Velvetcut’s musical journey.
