Doncaster siblings James and Jools Rollings make music as Peak Flow, and “Repetition” — dropped on Friday the 13th, because of course — wastes no time announcing itself. The track starts at full speed, thundering rhythms and screaming synths arriving in the chorus without warning, vocals smooth even as the lyrics map the slow erosion of a relationship stuck on repeat. The guitar grounds everything in warmth while the electronics push outward into something harder and more urgent.
The black-and-white video underscores the theme: no control, no exit, the same argument cycling back around. Peak Flow have a particular gift for the knife’s edge between darkness and a hook you can’t shake — “Repetition” lands exactly there, danceable and bleak in equal measure. The lads are building a sound that’s distinctly their own, and this single makes a strong case for where they’re headed.
