Previous Support For Larsen

"This new one from Larsen is thick with alt and emo vibes. And that's thick with a hard k, you gotta hit that plosive consonant with the same intensity as the band bring to this sick track." 4 / 5 Stars (Dave Ruby Howe, Triple J)

"...they’ve followed it up with a subversive music video starring some other local SA acts." (NME)

"Plenty of grunge and emotional, muscular rock being dealt out here by Larsen!" (Declan Byrne, Triple J)

"Larsen have gone full send on this one, their unique pounding alt-rock sound puts them on another level." (AAA Backstage)

"Covering a broad range of that which is found under the alt-rock umbrella" (Heavy Mag)


Larsen have just spent the last month touring on the back of their explosive alt-rock single 'Eating Me Alive' (released April 16) and before wrapping their tour up, they are serving up a final feast with the accompanying music video - watch here.

This turbulent track boasting big layers of electric guitars and angst-inducing lyrics is a song that has seen the band come into their own as songwriters and has set up what is to come in the coming months. 

To pair with the surging track, Larsen show their less serious side as they stuff their faces and bash out a performance. Producer Katrina Penning's intent was to use food as a representation for the state of the mind of the band - "you are what you eat". Penning states:

"In relation to the song I wanted to showcase the chase for “completeness”, but I also wanted it to be fun and a bit silly. So with inspiration from the “eating me alive” line I thought I’d get the band to stuff their guts, and have a noodle picnic as their triumph!”

Larsen's music video for 'Eating Me Alive' is out Friday, June 11.
