This Time Next Year, the debut album by British rock band Kid Kapichi, was released on February 5, 2021, and delivers a ferocious blend of gritty realism, sharp social commentary, and infectious energy. Hailing from Hastings, the band captures the raw essence of working-class life, channeling their experiences into a collection of songs that are as anthemic as they are thought-provoking.
The album features standout tracks like "Self Saboteur," "Working Man’s Town," and "Glitterati," showcasing the band’s knack for crafting hard-hitting riffs and punchy lyrics. With a sound that fuses elements of punk, alt-rock, and garage, Kid Kapichi balances aggression and melody, creating music that feels urgent and cathartic.
Lyrically, This Time Next Year is both introspective and outward-looking, tackling issues such as inequality, mental health, and the struggle for identity in a chaotic world. The band's raw honesty and defiant spirit shine throughout, making the album resonate deeply with listeners.
Critically acclaimed for its unflinching authenticity and bold sound, This Time Next Year establishes Kid Kapichi as a rising force in the UK rock scene. It’s an album that doesn’t just demand to be heard—it demands to be felt.
