The Grievance is born out of an excitement for playing live and the noble desire to rip it up. However, as with all the best party music, there's a mission statement too.

Dancing to Betty Davis or Syl Johnson or Bikini Kill or Public Enemy is all well and good in the clubs, but when you really dig into it, you are taught and inspired as well as entertained. As the title suggests, there is spleen being vented here, just as when Huggy Bear vented, or Dead Kennedys vented, or X-Ray Spex vented. IRKED’s rage might be tempered by wit and killer hooks but it’s still laser focused. The Grievance is genuinely righteous music made by people embedded in their local community and rightly enraged at the world around them.

We’re not here to tell you how to file this record or what type of music it might be. We’re here to tell you that IRKED belong alongside anyone who wants to bring a zest to a room, who wants to question what's going on, and who wants music played by folks who aren't cosplaying. We're done with that. We can spot it.

The Grievance is inspiring, raging, uplifting, sometimes-hilarious/sometimes-brutally honest, catchy-as-f*ck punk rock and you’re going to love it.
