Set for release via End Hits Records on 2nd October, 2015, Great Collapse’s debut album ‘Holy War’ is fuelled by this project’s epic hardcore song writing and focused bright classic punk hooks. It will be available as limited vinyl, CD and download and the band are streaming the first cut from the record ‘New Abolition’ here.
“This Song Is The First Chapter Of This Record, And Pushes Fast Past The Myths We Are Poisoned With About The Inevitability Of Violence, The Schadenfreude and RealPolitik of Hollow Leaders, Whispers and Documents Giving Away Love and Life On This Blue Planet. This Is Our Contribution, Our Small Peace Punk Bullet Aimed Between Our Heartbeats, Into The Belly Of This Monster That The Stories Of Powerless History Builds On The Backs Of Our Lives. These Humans, Animals, and Breathing Landscapes Are Not Our Enemy. We Build This Road By Walking On It. No Matter How Many Steps Or Lifetimes It May Take. New Abolition Is Only The Beginning.” – Thomas Barnett on ‘New Abolition’
