about

Following July’s anti-establishment punk-rock anthem ‘Animals’ – a song which has garnered the band attention far and wide with radio play on BBC Introducing, Total Rock, Amazing Radio, Primordial Radio and many more – the guys are wasting no time returning with the next part of their message – ‘Thieves and Liars‘.

Sticking with the theme set out in the last release, Thieves and Liars explores the disillusionment felt by millions across the nation as their self-serving leaders continue to promote division and hatred amongst the masses. It’s a call-to-arms for anyone that shares that concern, delivered through a message of hope and unity, hypothesising what might be possible if we stand together – united, strong!

“WE ARE THE UNITED, IT’S TIME FOR US TO FIGHT IT!”

Not deviating too far from the punky edge that served them so well on Animals, this latest single does afford the band an opportunity to flex their capabilities a little more. Their trademark big drum sounds and in-your-face riffs are still evident, as are vocalist Matt Beard’s angry rap-like verses but this time complimented with a softer, more melodic chorus accentuated by gang backing vocals all leading up to a breakdown that needs to be heard to feel the full gravity. This track reinforces that Call to the Faithful are on top of their game and intent on leaving their mark on the rock scene, with the third release of this cycle ‘It Doesn’t Matter’ set to follow in September, this is a band that isn’t going away anytime soon and you’re not gonna want to ignore.

lyrics

It was their mission
To blur your vision
Your concerns are met with derision
By the people that you trust to make the decision
Broken Britain
The politics of division
They’re loaded up with enough ammunition
And now they’re locked onto your position

People are dying
We should be crying
All of this time the
(Thieves and the liars try to divide us)
They build these walls
(They build these walls)
Brick by brick
(We won’t’ take this shit)
We are the united
It’s time for us to fight it

Natural selection
Through misdirection
Your request for safety and protection
Mean nothing to those who you share no connection
Your election
Cutting out the infection
They line us up assigned for correction, but
Fuck that, it’s time for insurrection

So long to the hate
So long to the pain
We cannot give up
While hate remains
So here’s to a future
Like we always planned
Instead of building these walls
We’re extending a hand

People are dying
We should be crying
All of this time the
Thieves and the liars try to divide us
They build these walls
Brick by brick
We won’t’ take this shit
We are the united
It’s time for us to fight it

People are dying
We should be crying
All of this time the
(Thieves and the liars try to divide us)
They build these walls
(They build these walls)
Brick by brick
(We won’t’ take this shit)
We are the united
It’s time for us

Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this. Luke

Behind The Sun
by Wild Thing Fire

The Sun has pulled me into orbit. This rocks, and then it rocks some more. It rewards the listener for listening. It's got a unique sound. It would be very uncharacteristic of me not to give some kind of comparison. So I'll say that it sounds a bit like Megadeth and Motorhead, but it really is its own sound. Michael
