The band said: “BAD DECISIONS is one of those songs that came from a really honest place. It’s about that part of you that always seems to pick the chaos: quitting the job, running toward the fire, saying the wrong thing at the worst time, but still hoping to be understood. We all have moments where we know we’re messing up, and somehow, we do it anyway. That tension between impulse and consequence is where this track lives”.
“There’s a bit of irony in the lyrics, but there’s also a lot of truth. It’s not about glorifying screwing up. It’s about owning it, learning from it, and realizing that sometimes the path that looks wrong to everyone else might just be the one you need to take. We wanted the song to feel reckless but human, with that mix of regret, adrenaline, and hope. That’s BAD DECISIONS for us”, they continued.
PEAKS! are an exceptional alternative rock duo from Turin, Italy, who started their musical journey towards the end of 2020 with the jaw dropping debut song ‚ “Blackout”, that amassed over 2 million Spotify streams.
The band are intensely creative and have formed a very strong distinctive image through their visual output since the start: they shoot and create their own videos and content, while collaborating with the renowned Italian graphic designer Giulia Lunge, to realise and stay true to their vision.
From big fuzzy guitar riffs to catchy hooks, their musical influences draw from 70s rock to 90/2000s Electro Pop, as well as current bands such as The Score, Twenty One Pilots, Imagine Dragons, grandson, YUNGBLUD, Bishop Briggs, Welshly Arms, SAINT PHNX and more.
PEAKS! debuted live at The Great Escape (2022) in Brighton, gaining huge acclaim that led to festival slots at 2000 Trees in the UK and supporting Pearl Jam at BST Hyde Park in London, then Placebo in Mantova (Italy), their Italian debut in front of 10,000 people. They wrapped up 2022 by playing with Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes.
2023 saw PEAKS! returning to The Great Escape in Brighton, playing at the first Slam Dunk in Italy, followed by support slots with Dead Poets Society in Holland, and summer shows with Placebo in Italy and Switzerland. They played with Placebo again in 2024, as well as performing at the Storing Festival in The Netherlands.
Over the years, PEAKS! have received great support from DSPs, including placements on New Music Friday playlists across Europe on Spotify, and Fresh Rock and New Rock playlists on Amazon Music.
The band have been featured on BBC Radio 1’s ‘Future Artists’ with Jack Saunders and on Kerrang! Radio, as well as earning strong airplay in the UK and across Europe. On TV, their music has been used on Love Island in the UK and on BBC’s Match of the Day, as well as on various US sync projects.
