The Jobseekerz Deliver Masterful Tune ‘Get Rich’
The Jobseekerz are redefining the soundscape of Irish music with their groundbreaking Electric Gyp-Hop (Sham-rock).
The Jobseekerz—the sweatiest five-piece band south of the border—are thrilled to share that their much anticipated new song, ‘Get Rich’. Prepare to feel the electricity. Known for their dramatic live performances and genre-bending sound, the group combine Funk, Rap, and Alternate Rock to create a unique sound they call Electric Gyp-Hop (Sham-rock), which offers an unmatched musical experience.
Since its founding in 2014, The Jobseekerz—whose members are from Navan and Louth—have been travelling relentlessly from the enchanted realms of Cavan. The band has established its distinct sound and chemistry after many lineup changes, earning comparisons to legendary artists like the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and the Beastie Boys.
The Jobseekerz initially gained notoriety on July 21, 2019, when their debut EP, Social Hellfare, was released at the KnockanStockan event. They proceeded with the release of their debut album, Unemployable, in 2023, and the singles that followed in 2023 and 2024. The music video for “It’s Got Me Like,” including cameos from many district TDs, became quite popular.
The Jobseekerz are well-known for their energetic live performances, which combine humour, stage presence, and audience participation. Their shows are a dynamic rollercoaster of genres and moods, interspersed with sharp social criticism about their upbringing in a tiny Irish town. They have a devoted fan base and excellent ratings thanks to this alluring combination.
Destined to be Ireland’s next big thing, The Jobseekerz latest offering demonstrates their fantastic musicianship and musical abilities to create tunes that are electrifying. Regardless of your familiarity with The Jobseekerz music, this tune is an absolute must-listen.
Be sure to give ‘Get Rich’ a listen.
In “You Never Do Shit,” Brooklyn’s Dead Tooth deliver a snarling, urgent post-punk single that distills their barbed energy into under four minutes of sharp-tongued wit and scuffed-up sonics. It’s a track that bristles with disdain—Zach Ellis’ vocal delivery is acidic, at times theatrical, and often more spoken than sung. There’s a punk rock immediacy here, but with the knowing wink of someone who’s watched the scene curdle and still wants to dance through the ashes.
The song began its life in a different medium—written for a fictional band on City on Fire—but the real-life iteration carries more weight. There’s a palpable satisfaction in Ellis’ decision to reclaim it, and that freedom seeps into every detail: the unkempt rhythm section, the jarring saxophone lines from John Stanesco, and the deliberate looseness that characterizes its structure.
Dead Tooth are at once participants and commentators in the culture they inhabit. Their songs are alive with noise, but also with intent—tracking the psychic hangover of nightlife, subcultural collapse, and underground scenes that burn bright and disappear too soon. Ellis’ lyrical observations land like tossed-off critiques, but underneath the smirk is something deeper, almost desperate: a desire for connection, even through chaos.
With their debut album looming, “You Never Do Shit” feels like a thesis statement. Not just of sound, but of ethos: reject slickness, embrace noise, tell the truth—even if it’s ugly. In a year when punk has mostly whispered or wandered, Dead Tooth has chosen to scream.
