DURRY Announce New Album ‘This Movie Sucks’ Out June 27 via Thirty Tigers

Minneapolis, MN – Durry, a brother/sister indie rock band from Minneapolis, MN have announced details surrounding their forthcoming new album, ‘This Movie Sucks’ to be released June 27 via Thirty Tigers. With the announcement comes the release of their new single and title track “This Movie Sucks” streaming now on all digital platforms, here: https://orcd.co/d-tms-s. The official music video for the song will premiere this Friday, April 4 on YouTube at 11am CT at this link: https://youtu.be/X5sBJI1pQCQ

Composed of Austin and Taryn Durry, the band is known for their wry, tongue in cheek lyrics about the futility of adulthood and the world at large. Their song “Who’s Laughing Now” took off on Tiktok, amassing six million streams with listeners resonating with coming of age frustrations. It helped songs from their debut album ‘Suburban Legend’ see mentions with publications like Rolling Stone and Ones To Watch and debut at number four on the Alternative New Artist Chart.

‘This Movie Sucks’, the band’s sophomore effort, produced by Phil Odom (Code Orange, Turnover, Say Anything), has a bit of everything for everyone. The sound is wildly diverse, taking Durry’s established sound and stretching it further than ever before. With strong punk rock sensibilities in songs like “Bully” and “Start a Band” alongside the folksy sounds of “The Long Goodbye” and “Slug Bug”, the album is a wild ride from start to finish – tailor made for those reliving the energetic angst of the rock scene in the early aughts. Lyrically, ‘This Movie Sucks’ touches on universal themes such as prolonged grief, the toxic nature of Internet culture and remembering loved ones.

“Honestly the process of making this record has been a dream come true for us,” says Austin Durry. “We’ve always recorded in basements, and home studios whenever we could find time and finances to make it happen. But for this record we were finally able to get into a big studio with a completed body of work and just bang out a whole album. It felt so good, and I think that really shines through these songs.”

Ultimately ‘This Movie Sucks’ is a celebration, not just of the current moment but of the way Durry has transformed a negative situation into a creative outlet that has connected them with other people all over the globe. “If we weren’t forced to slow down [due to the pandemic], I don’t think any of this would have happened,” Austin admits. “Moving back home was a really humbling experience but it was really good.”

Durry may have started out as an internet sensation championed by unlikely advocates like Limp Bizkit’s Fred Durst, but after spending the past few years touring the country and honing their craft, they want to show the world that they are a seasoned act, remaining involved in every aspect of their career—from the merch to the songs to the videos. “We’ve been able to have more resources with this album and get help when we need it but we’re still trying to maintain the whole DIY nature of the band while also keeping the quality as high as we can,” Austin explains. “Our hands are in every part of this band and meeting our own quality standards are really important to us,” he adds. “We have a super unified vision and feel like everything goes together—and that’s why things can take so long, but that’s so important to us.”

Durry has announced upcoming headline live dates that will kick off in the fall. The tour will span twenty four cities and kick off in the band’s hometown of Minneapolis, MN on September 12 at First Ave. Pre-sale starts on Tuesday, April 8 at 10am local time with general tickets going on sale Friday, April 11 at 10am local time.
