The Academic’s New Single Is An Eighties-Tinged Synth-Pop Song With A Ridiculously Catchy Chorus

Our favourite Irish four-piece are back with a bang(er).

It’s enough to send a shiver up the spine of any self-respecting scene kid. Ireland’s favourite indie hotshots have… Well, they’ve gone pop. And, shockingly, they’ve done it well.

Yes, The Academic have plonked out a new single, and it’s as joyous a slice of synth-pop joy as anything Gary Numan ever put his name to. It’s called Anything Could Happen and we think that it’s going to be the song that takes them from mere Indie darlings to bona-fide national treasures.
