Unfiltered brilliance from SIR-VERE—dangerous, hypnotic, and completely unforgettable.
SIR-VERE crash back into the spotlight with Rebound // Iggy, a double-barreled blast of genre-splintering energy that cements their reputation as one of the most adventurous acts out of Milton Keynes.
Frontman Craig White leads the charge with unflinching vocals and razor-edged lyrics, supported by Gary Morland’s versatile command of keyboards and guitar, and Steve Craighead’s synth wizardry and DJ-ready instincts. Rebound // Iggy doesn’t flirt with boundaries, it obliterates them, track by track, bar by bar.
“Rebound” kicks the doors wide open. From the moment the beat drops, there’s a surge of synth-fueled heat—intense, relentless, and ready to ignite any room. The production feels like neon sweat dripping from the ceiling of a warehouse rave, with Morland’s keyboards slashing through the mix and Craighead layering a high-octane pulse that never relents.
What also hits hard is White’s vocal delivery, seductive and commanding, with a hypnotic rhythm that leans into the track’s decadent theme of emotional ricochet. Lines like:
“Love you so much on the rebound to your arms”
don’t just land, they haunt. It’s a sexual, kinetic, unapologetically club-ready anthem that rides the line between romantic collapse and euphoric revival.
Following that, the AA-side “Iggy” shifts gears entirely, diving into a sound that fuses cinematic suspense with rock-driven chaos. The bassline leads like a panther in slow motion, pulling the listener into a world that feels part Bond theme, part R&B noir, part riotous dance-rock. And it all works because of how tightly everything is controlled.
Morland’s guitar rips through the low-end like it’s cutting glass, while Craighead’s sonic manipulation turns the mix into a living, breathing thing. But what elevates the track to brilliance is White’s duet styled vocal delivery. Opening with a mantra-like sequence (“I Am…”) that hits like a spoken spell, before shifting to the sly, soulful duet. This interplay becomes its own storyline, with the instrumentation dancing around it, weaving tension and release in equal measure.
And just when you think the song has settled, it detonates again. The guitars start volleying, the drums pan across headphones with dazzling precision, and the interlude fuzz gives it all the feel of an electro-spiritual breakdown. It’s masterful chaos. What’s especially impressive is how each track feels complete on its own, yet still part of the same vision.
The engineering here is also top-tier. Everything is crystal clear, but with enough grit and texture to keep it raw. White’s vocals are always at the forefront, giving a human edge to even the most mechanized moments.
What’s most exciting about Rebound // Iggy is how SIR-VERE manage to sound like no one but themselves, even as they pull from a thousand different genres. This isn’t evolution, it’s transformation. With these two tracks, they stretch from their signature synth base into full-blown live rock territory without losing a single ounce of identity. That makes it impossible to pick a favorite, and even harder to guess where they’ll go next—but whatever direction they choose, they’ve made it clear they’re not following trends. They’re setting them.
We’re not just impressed, we’re on alert. SIR-VERE is sounding like a band fully locked in and ready to stake their claim at the next level.
The sonic mastery of 'Rebound // Iggy' proves SIR-VERE are in a league entirely their own.
SIR-VERE don’t just make music, they construct sonic worlds.
Based in Milton Keynes, this genre-defying outfit is known for pushing far beyond the limits of any one scene. Their sound lives at the intersection of underground grit and high-gloss production, blending elements of electro, rock, industrial, and dance with surgical precision.
With Craig White on vocals, Gary Morland shaping the core through guitars and synths, and Steve Craighead layering textures as both a keyboardist and DJ, the trio brings a fully immersive audio identity to everything they release.
Their growth has been defined by constant movement, new ideas, bold pivots, and zero hesitation to experiment. Whether they're channeling the pulse of a warehouse rave or the energy of a live band on fire, SIR-VERE always land with intention. They've carved a space that's as emotionally raw as it is rhythmically precise. Every release is a new chapter in their evolution, and none of it feels recycled.
