Goo – Payday

“Payday” is the first single from the upcoming debut album by UK indie rock band Goo.

Recorded with producer Andy Hawkins at The Nave, a former chapel in Stanningley, the track pushes straight into the strain and absurdity of trying to keep up with modern life. The track comes in sharp and doesn’t let up, carrying the kind of energy that feels immediate rather than polished.

The album arrives in Spring 2026, followed by a run of UK and European dates. Ahead of that, Goo are expected to join Marmozets for a sold out winter tour that hits Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, Nottingham, Cambridge, Bristol, Southampton, and London.

“Payday” is backed by two exclusive b sides. “Desiderium,” the second song the band ever wrote together, appears here in its fully realized form from the album sessions. A cover of the Buzzcocks’ “What Do I Get?” adds a raw, rehearsal room jolt, mixed by James Bragg.

The release builds on a run of rising momentum. Goo have filmed a three song BBC Introducing session, toured with Pup and Illuminati Hotties, sold out their debut EP Chomp twice on vinyl, and played festivals across the UK and France. Their recent singles earned radio support from BBC Introducing, Radio One, and a wave of indie outlets highlighting their fast, fuzzy, straight to the point sound.
