Manchester’s indie music scene is about to feel another jolt of excitement as UNO MAS drop their latest single ‘Snake Eyes’, crafting a track that encapsulates the highs and lows of chasing dreams in the music industry. ‘Snake Eyes’ is a three-minute surge of energy, packed with driving riffs and a chorus that sticks with you long after the track ends. The song delves into the unpredictable nature of the music business, using the metaphor of a dice roll to explore the thrill and uncertainty of the journey. The lyrics remind listeners that, even when the odds seem daunting, perseverance can still lead to success. It’s a powerful message delivered with the band’s signature blend of hard-hitting melodies and thoughtful lyricism.
Comprising Olly on lead vocals and guitar, Dan on guitar, Tommo on bass and backing vocals, and Lew on drums and backing vocals, UNO MAS has quickly become a staple in Manchester’s underground scene. Their ability to fuse raw energy with relatable lyrics and catchy hooks has earned them a devoted following, one that grows with every explosive live performance.
But the band doesn’t just stick to one genre. While they draw from a wide range of influences, notably Bloc Party and Arctic Monkeys, they infuse each track with a unique blend of styles that keeps their sound fresh and exciting. This versatility, combined with their genuine love for making music, is what sets them apart from other emerging bands. Their passion is palpable, both in the studio and on stage, where they create a euphoric atmosphere as often as possible.
The band’s momentum is undeniable. With continuous airplay on national stations like Radio X and support from Manchester’s XS Manchester and BBC Introducing, UNO MAS are clearly on the rise, and ‘Snake Eyes’ is another step forward for a band that shows no signs of slowing down.
