Single Review: Kid Spirit – A Million Pieces + Official Video
A MILLION PIECES
Kid Spirit don’t arrive quietly, they crash in like a tidal wave. Their new single ‘A Million Pieces’ is an electrified scream from the wreckage of teenage heartbreak: loud, jagged, raw and totally impossible to ignore.
From the first hit of fuzz-drenched guitar to the last breathless lyrics, this is a band throwing everything into the chaos and sounding all the better for it.
Frontman Luke Parker puts it best:
“The song is about the slow-burning hysteria of toxic teenage love. The kind that feels limitless in the moment, but leaves you scattered when it ends.”
You can feel every word of that in the performance vocals frayed at the edges, drums snapping like tension in a crowded room and guitars that sound like they’re barely holding together under the emotional weight.
Shot by Dave Harries at the iconic Docks Academy in Grimsby, the accompanying visuals capture the same feeling: crumbling beauty, controlled collapse, and moments of clarity between the noise.
Kid Spirit are a Nottingham-based alt-rock four-piece with Brighton and Grimsby roots. Reformed in 2024 with Parker at the helm and a new lineup that includes Steve Heather (Bass), Lewis Duckworth (Guitar), and Matt Bell (Drums). Their sound dances on the edge between explosive pop energy and the atmospheric sprawl of post-rock, melancholic but punchy, fragile but fierce.
Off the back of their ‘Salvation Series‘ EP and a run of sold-out shows, Kid Spirit are proving they’re more than just noise merchants, they’re craftsmen of chaos.
With festivals and more singles lined up, 2025 is shaping up to be a hell of a year.
