Aqualine

Guildford-based alternative rock five-piece Aqualine are setting off for their first UK tour in support of their new EP, Tripwire. Fusing post-punk aggression, grunge, ethereal shoegaze with bold experimental flourishes, the band explores themes of mental stability, disassociation, and self-identity in young adulthood. Tripwire is a raw and emotionally charged collection that captures the chaos of intrusive thoughts and the quiet weight of imposter syndrome, all set against a dynamically enraged sonic backdrop. Aqualine is an alternative band based around London consisting of Benski, Patric, Wil and Albert. They are a guitar-based band whose music is inspired by a mix of grunge, punk, hip hop and shoegaze. This allows for a unique sound within their music full of frustration and angst, sitting on a bed of atmospheric guitar sounds. Aqualine's lyrics and artwork consist of honest feelings about the pressures of a mundane lifestyle in the 21st century, bringing feelings of escapism and a personal perspective on life.
