Sean Griffin ignites a Britpop spirit on sophomore single 'Rocks Off'

Sean Griffin returns with a roar on his second solo outing 'Rocks Off', a track that channels raw energy while tipping its hat to the Britpop era. From the first riff, the frontman stakes a claim as a rock force unafraid to let his wilder side shine. The song brims with a kinetic vitality as snappy guitar lines intertwine with a driving rhythm section, creating a momentum that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly current.

His vocals are unapologetically gritty, carrying a sneer and swagger reminiscent of his punk roots while navigating melodic passages with ease. The production, helmed by Andrew Goodsight and polished by Paul Kolderie, balances wall-of-sound grandeur with clarity, allowing each instrument to punch through with precise impact. The result is a track that’s big, brash, and immediate, yet far from chaotic.

Lyrically and sonically, 'Rocks Off' captures that rush of youthful defiance, hinting at the confidence and exploration set to define Griffin’s forthcoming debut album. The track feels like a bridge between past and present, nostalgic echoes of The Charlatans and Cast meet a modern punk-inflected bite, crafting a sound that’s unmistakably his own.

By the final chorus, it’s clear that Sean Griffin is asserting a renewed vision for his solo career. 'Rocks Off' is a thrilling taste of unfiltered energy, melodic sharpness, and a Britpop revival that feels alive, urgent, and entirely of the moment.
