Three years ago, the band based in Milton Keynes released their debut single. Then the inevitable happened (uni, life, covid) and plans were put on hold. It's been a whirlwind to get here, but now they're finally ready to share more of their sound with the world – and there's no better track to do it with than something refreshingly energetic.
Combining numerous influences together – anything from Radiohead to the video game Transistor – Indecisive have formed a unique style that brings all of their individual interests into one body of work.
'The Motions' has the typical facade of an upbeat, joyous song, but the lyrics tell an opposing story of being stuck in a rut, treating others around you with disdain and not being able to stop.
On the inspiration behind the track, lead singer Drew explains, "I was thinking about the cycles when it came to my relationships: the return to a certain moment, repeating similar mistakes, the inability to find happiness within that - there's a term for it, 'the hedonic treadmill'". |

Meeting all the way back in Year 7 and discovering their shared love of music, the quartet formed a year or so later, but reshaped the band when lead singer, Drew, joined in 2018. From there, the band started to work on original material together and go on to start gigging in their hometown.
Meshing alternative and math rock together with a healthy dose of jazz influence, Indecisive are amongst a flurry of exciting young bands coming out of Milton Keynes, a place whose music scene has been reignited in the last few years.
After releasing their debut track 'What Good Is It For?', they notably garnered recognition from fellow Home Counties musician Alfie Templeman ("Alfie Templeman's New Music Friday"), PressThis! Music PR's rock playlist, Amazing Radio and airplay on RadioMK as well as a live show. They've played a sold-out show in Lincoln's Liquor, supported Bull last September (alongside Home Counties) and played to 300 Bucks residents at the Bradfest.
