The St Pierre Snake Invasion ‘A Hundred Years A Day’ | Album Review

You can tell upon first listen that St. Pierre are saying something important with their debut full-length. Rather impressively, the five-piece smashed out all eleven tracks with less than three days in the studio, something reflected now more than ever in their urgent, post-hardcore sound.

There’s a maniacal yet composed nature around the whole thing. Frontman Damien Sayell bosses it throughout; one minute there’s near-composure and the next flat out screaming, the best example perhaps being the cutely named, ‘Sex Dungeons & Dragons’.

This release amounts to a deft, Mclusky-esque sifting of the bullsh*t of culture today, “If the only way is essex you can kill me now” they slag behind a boozy bassline. Tell you what, if you’re into heavier music, this may be the only Bristol band you need in your life right now.
