The War Goes On - Punch Drunk



  The War Goes On are a Copenhagen 4 piece who formed in 2008 and feature a line up of Ronni Dybdahl (Guitar/Vocals), Casper Knudsen (Bass), Troels Dag Malinovsky (Drums) and David Hating (Guitar). Listing amongst their influences The Wipers and Motorhead, they released the This Shitty Life ep in 2012 and followed it up in 2016 with a Self Titled debut album.

  They seem to be making a habit of taking 4 years to release new material as they've a new album on it's way. It'll be titled Assisted Armageddon and it'll be released by Adult Crash Records       http://adult-crash.com/wp/. The label describes it thus  "2nd full length of über catchy melancholic and bleak Copenhagen punk rock. Drawing equally on Danish 80'ies pop-rock classics and old US and UK punk."

  It's been a long wait but going off the evidence of the song they've teased us with it'll be well worth it. I'm not sure if it's about anyone in particular or just gobshites in general but as expected it mixes a hard hitting back beat with catchy as fuck vocals.

  It's called Punch Drunk...

You won't stop talking and you're talking too loud
Getting everything covered in spit
It's foul decay that comes when your mouth
It spews a steady stream of shit

And I am punch drunk
Brains running out my ears
I am battle weary, tired to death
Like an open book, you confirm my fears
And now I got a pain in my head

I call bullshit on everything that you say and do
And so this one goes out to you

You won't stop talking and you're talking too loud
Getting everything covered in spit
It's foul decay that comes when your mouth
It spews a steady stream of shit

And I am punch drunk
Brains running out my ears
I am battle weary, tired to death
Like an open book, you confirm my fears
And now I got a pain in my head

I call bullshit on everything that you say and do
And so this one goes out to you
I call bullshit on everything that you say and do
And so this one goes out to you
