The Alchemy are streaming their debut EP Modern Age in its entirety with TeamRock.

The up-and-coming British rock outfit, from Canterbury, release Modern Age on May 9 and launch it with a gig in their hometown on May 13, followed by a short tour.

The Alchemy tell TeamRock: “Modern Age – an EP inspired by observations of our current generation which appears to be on a path of self destruction and segregation whether it be through global issues, racial divides or sexual discrimination.

“The artwork for the EP depicts a character who craves perfection of self in a narcissistic way and yet appears miserable and almost worthless, represented by the mannequin – a fake, plastic portrayal of him or herself – emphasising the unobtainable goals of perfection that our generation are obsessed with.”
