Making moves on concrete at different paces trying to get somewhere I need to face that asphalt moves along with you so do the harder things we tread on. I try to smile when I feel out of place the cold stares start to feel a little distance and hearts move along with you so do the softer things we lean on. Will you still be around? Is that what the smile on your face meant? Everyone is getting home somehow. The bars closing and I’m leaving tomorrow. Share a drink and lean a little closer and if your politics aren’t shit maybe I could get to know you. Ranting on and on about the harder things we’ve come to tread on. Hit the strings but the sound seems out of place. Sing the chorus and remember what the words meant and days move along with you so do the tired things we lean on. Will you still be around? Is that what the smile on your face meant? Everyone is getting home somehow. The bars closing and I’m leaving tomorrow. Will you still be around? Is that what the smile on your face meant? Everything in life is way past due but I’ll be fine I’m paying rent tomorrow.

Brilliant brilliant album, the contrast of different vocalists works so well, "perhaps you deliver" is another belter of an album too (both albums are great played back to back).i hope they make more albums. DAMIEN MCSHERRY
This is absolutely the best new punk band at the moment. This record sees Crusades in their raw element evoking sounds of dark punk rock with pure adrenaline to the ears. Tracks include "Driven" with an old AFI/Misfits feel and the Jesus and Mary Chain influenced "Serpentine". Robby Griffith
Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2022
A new track from Pretty Matty finds the band in top form, delivering clean yet crunchy hook-laden power pop with trademark high energy. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 25, 2020
I don't think I've heard a bad Dead Bars song. "Emergency" is the Terminator 2 of songs about anxiety and panic attacks. Don't miss this band when they come to your town. Erik Button
