who are
alright (okay)?

For the past three years, alright (okay) has been shaking up Liverpool’s underground scene with high-energy performances and a raw, unfiltered sound that blends punk, alternative, and garage rock.

Known for their electrifying live shows, relentless creativity, and ever-evolving sound, alright (okay) refuses to stay in one place. With each release, they push their own boundaries, embracing a scrappier, heavier, and more chaotic intensity.

Following the 2024 singles Boyz Noize and Elevator Etiquette, the band’s sound has grown louder, fuzzier, and more unhinged, fueling an increasing buzz around their name.

Their 2025 performances – including shows with Do Nothing, a sold out show at The Windmill, Brixton and appearances at Stockton Calling, and FOCUS Wales – have seen them bring their uncompromising energy to bigger audiences in the lead-up to their highly anticipated debut EP – decent (fine).

Five years in the making, decent (fine) is alright (okay) at their sharpest. Lyrically and sonically, the EP is a raw and intentional expression of young adulthood – ranging from frustration with stagnation in an industrial town to a fuzz-drenched tirade about Liverpool’s infamous 10A bus.

With a bold, dynamic alt-rock sound, decent (fine) is the definitive introduction to alright (okay): scrappy, loud, and completely their own.

'Elevator Etiquette' - out now

‘Elevator Etiquette’, is a stomping, anti-9 to 5 punk banger born from negative office culture & being undervalued in the workplace. aggressive vocals, punchy riffs and reflective choruses drive the track at an urgent pace, before exploding into a frenzied breakdown that inspires mosh pits in sweaty venues.

press quotes

“A venue around half full becomes packed to near full capacity within little more than fifteen minutes, buzzing with a real excitement for the set ahead. It’s not hard to understand why; in Liverpool, alright (okay) are a band who you will have heard of, even if you haven’t heard them. Their reputation precedes them.

Things immediately erupt with ferocious hard rock energy, brought forth with a viciously energetic stage presence and spoken word vocals.

Their vocalist descends into the crowd, and the audience loves it; part man, part Rottweiler, he eggs the crowd on, whipping them up into a frenzy, before tearing them to shreds with a razor sharp, rock and roll menace.

This is how to open a show perfectly.”

The Vinyl Fantasy

“In a crowded musical space, Liverpool band alright (okay) turn heads.

It’s a heady mix of spiky abandon with the vocals but a tight punky control with the guitar chords and a drum beat you could tie a heart monitor to. There is an urgency about alright (okay) and the result is a stage presence of freshly uncaged hyenas.

alright (okay) are a band comfortable in their musical skin; there’s room both for a framework of a loose heavy style, but also for experiment.

The sonic landscape is just as bleak and yet powerfully beautiful.

Heavy on guitar, heavy on loose and chaotic, heavy on a positive beat and heavy on heavy. I’m sure I’m going deaf, but I’m pleased I’ve not wasted my hearing on shit sounds.

It really is time for the world to pick up on just how special this band is.”

Old Man Blues

“Like the sonic equivalent of standing at a cliff edge with your toes just hanging over the end, the song deals in the tension between far-reaching horizons and wide-world scenery, and the free-falling danger just one inch forward. Equally skittish, acidic, and high danceable, you just don’t know which way it will go.”

YUCK Magazine

“alright (okay) have been making waves on their local underground scene for a good while now, known for their visceral live shows, quirky attitude and appealing dense and scrappy sound.

This scrappiness is not to be confused with sloppiness because every note they play is placed there with intent yet they prefer to perform with a lucid, Garage band style rather than a crisper, commercialised delivery.”
