Benefits by Michael Sreenan
It’ll be released by Benefits on April 21st.
Benefits have signed to Invada Records for the release of their debut album Nails.
Warhorse has been picked to accompany the announcement – described by frontman Kingsley Hall as being about, ‘the need to push that boot back from our faces, raise our heads, stand up and fight’:
”At some point if the boot continues to stamp on us, we’re going to react. Things bug me. They start as little irks and become fiercer.”
“It can take days, sometimes minutes. The phrase “cost of living” being blurted out by an MP when confronted with the poverty of their constituents.”
Simpering and grovelling to decrepit hierarchical systems. Pageantry and pomp in a time of austerity and cuts. ‘Warhorse’ is a battle. It’s about being tired of being told there’s no options left – being told to bow and courtesy and to shut your face.
