Today sees Limerick outfit THEATRE unveil their debut single, The Fall. Signing to BMG / Echo, the band share their darkened, goth-tinged sensibilities, as towering choruses crash through the track’s anthemic core. Talking through the origins of their first release, THEATRE explained: “’The Fall’ tells the story of a broken friendship, a changeling like person, and the torment that comes with loving someone as toxic as that. Writing the song was the light at the end of the tunnel of a very dark time. Not only was it the first song that people took notice of and that propelled us into gigging full time, it also was the first song that had a fully fleshed theme and story, and it was the first time we realised that a song could metamorphose a negative experience into art.” Take a listen below. 

THEATRE is Maeve O’Shea (vocals), Oscar Halpin (guitar), Dara Gooney (guitar), Gerry Sheil (bass), Sean Storan (drums).
