Noisier and more aggressive than most of their Sarah Records contemporaries, U.K. indie pop band Boyracer became known as one of the most prolific bands of their day. Centered around the restless and often jittery songwriting of bandleader Stewart Anderson, the group charged through their most active period in the '90s and then receded into a state of semi-dormancy in the late 2000s. Songs and albums came less frequently but strong records like 2004's Happenstance still surfaced every so often. In 2020, the band broke from a 12-year hiatus with their 13th studio full-length On a Promise, and wasted no time returning the next year with their 14th album Assuaged.
