SNAYX are back with new single Brain Cellz, which vents about how "we needlessly argue amongst ourselves for little gain and throw each other under the bus for moral convenience", and are getting fans to vote between two versions of the music video.
SNAYX are back with their first new release of 2026 in the form of Brain Cellz, their first single on new label Nettwerk Music Group.
The Brighton trio have been playing the song live for some time, but the studio version has finally arrived. It finds them unpacking the needlessness of squabbling among ourselves, particularly in order to seem like the most righteous.
"Often, as humans, we needlessly argue amongst ourselves for little gain and throw each other under the bus for moral convenience. It often feels like a constant struggle that ultimately gains little more than the token satisfaction of being right one time. In reality, we all make mistakes, and growth takes patience, guidance and understanding,” the band says.
On the music videos, they say: “We decided to represent this futile struggle in the form of a tug of war. To illustrate the message, we filmed it twice, with each version focusing on the opposing team's perspective and outcome. The lens is skewed to show how we often let personal biases steer a will towards a preferred outcome. 'In a war for the sun or the moon, whose side are you on? Whose fight will you choose?”
There’s an interactive element too, with fans asked to choose between guitarist Ollie Horner and drummer Lainey Loops’s teams.
“After 72 hours of both videos going live, the one with the most views and engagement on YouTube will be declared the ultimate winner and the other version will be deleted forever.” the band explain. “You simply use your power to like and comment to permanently decide which of the two outcomes goes on to become the official music video forever, and cementing yourself as a hidden member of the winning team. In a war for the sun or the moon, whose side are you on? Whose fight will you choose?” Are you Team Ollie or Team Lainey? Like, comment and share your favourite version. The battle has begun!”
