Before They Are Hanged - Ground Down



  Forming in Feb 2018, Before They Are Hanged (https://www.facebook.com/beforetheyarehanged/) are based around the Peak District, North Derbyshire & Sheffield and feature a line up of Simon Madden (lead vocals), Dan Abrahams (guitar/backing vocals), Trevor Vickey (bass/backing vocals) and Ben Duncan (Drums/backing vocals). They took their name from a novel by Joe Abercrombie (I've read it, it's very good) and their influences include the likes of Bad Religion, Rancid, Descendents, Nirvana etc.

  They've been busy working on their debut album which will be ironically titled Welcome To England. They've 5 songs done but now we're all in lockdown the pencilled in release date will be pushed back from the summer to autumn at the earliest. Fear not though, we can get an idea what to expect both from their earlier songs on Bandcamp (https://beforetheyarehanged.bandcamp.com/) and in the form of the brand new track you'll find below. Once this current crisis is over they'll be looking for gigs so give them a shout if you can help.

  A powerful wall of sound backs a call to stand for what you believe in, this is Ground Down...
