It’s short and definitely not sweet, and, seeing as it’s from their forthcoming EP The Plastic Age, this is only the beginning.

Right To Fight Back crashes into your life, an absolute calamity of hectic, unrelenting noise — It’s exactly what you want form a hardcore punk track. It’s gorgeously quick, with frantic drums driving you through the entire experience. David Bason’s vocal performance in particular is glorious; Bason’s vocals are deeply emotional, raw in a way that riles you up, gets your blood pumping. It’s impossible not to feel the message of the song in your gut – all the injustices in the world, inhumane boarder treatment, corporate control… it’s time to FIGHT BACK!
