Video Premiere: Peacock Method - 'Slow'
Arguably one of Manchester’s coolest new bands, When the Horn Blows are pleased to premiere the video for Peacock Method’s recently released single ‘Slowly’.
Emerging from the UK’s lockdown having formed from the ashes of two previous Manchester indie bands, the intention of Peacock Method’s debut single ‘I Don’t Mind’ was to inject much needed colour into the city’s post-pandemic nightlife. They succeeded. Establishing not only themselves as one of the city’s brightest prospects, but also in doing their own small part to help get the Northern Quarter back to its pre-pandemic prime.
Now the band are back with their second single ‘Slowly’. Taking a different narrative approach to their debut, it was described by the band as illustrating “an indifferent approach to casual sex and a tongue in cheek comment on the sensations of a one night stand. Its about living life too quickly and switching up presumptive roles of genders in the bedroom.”

There are few shows more abrasive; loud, chaotic and brash than a Guilt Trip show. Their live pits are a tour-de-force of sheer brutality and mayhem, and the Manchester outfit translate that superbly well onto their new album that’s as hardworking as the city they come from.
