Helena. tackle university realities with playful energy on ‘P’s Get Degrees’

Emerging from Perth’s hills with a camaraderie rooted in years of shared history, Helena. channel their collective experiences into a spirited new single ‘P’s Get Degrees’. This track exemplifies the band’s knack for blending humour and introspection, delivered with a nostalgic nod to early 2000s pop-punk and alternative rock. It’s a bold, catchy anthem that resonates with anyone who’s ever questioned the real-world value of academic accolades.

‘P’s Get Degrees’ unpacks the oft-ignored realities of higher education- where grades and achievements may not necessarily align with career fulfillment. With its upbeat tempo and irreverent tone, the song captures the relatable disconnect between the structured world of academia and the unpredictability of post-graduate life. Rather than lamenting this gap, the track approaches it with a wink, making light of the absurdity while embracing the lessons learned.

Helena.’s influences shine brightly throughout the song. Echoes of bands like Relient K, Blink-182, and Kisschasy mingle seamlessly with the contemporary energy of acts such as Luca Brasi and Sly Withers. The result is a vibrant, layered sound that feels refreshingly current. With driving guitars, dynamic drum work, and harmonised vocals, ‘P’s Get Degrees’ reimagines the band’s roots for a modern audience.

With an EP set for release later this year, Helena. continue to cement their place in the Australian music scene. Their ability to weave humour, introspection, and vibrant soundscapes into tracks like ‘P’s Get Degrees’ marks them as a band to watch. Whether you’re a recent grad or just someone who appreciates a well-crafted alt-rock banger, Helena.’s latest single is a must-add to your playlist.
