Campaign Of Terror - Divide And Fall

  


  Campaign Of Terror (https://www.facebook.com/Campaign-of-Terror-737636777008176) are a new UK punk band that have recently posted a couple of songs to Bandcamp (https://campaignofterror.bandcamp.com/music) and are promising more to come.

  I've no info about them to share but going off the image at the top of this update they look to be a 3 piece. I'd recommend them to fans of bands such as Conflict, Oi Polloi & Armoured Flu Unit etc. Their music is hard hitting and on the evidence presented thus far it's lyrically political. One of the released songs, KTB (which stands for Kill The Bill), deals with the threat to free speech and the policing bill being pushed through by Priti Patel which aims to prevent peaceful protest. It's a topical look at a draconian threat that aims to shut down public dissent. 

  The other track, the one you'll see below, is about how those in power are encouraging a Them vs Us society. Divide and conquer.

  Divide And Fall...

I KNOW YOUR KIND, WHATS ON YOUR MIND
YOU FLY A FLAG YOU READ A RAG
IM IN THE CROWD NO THOUGHT ALLOWED
STRENGTH IN UNITY HATE WITH IMPUNITY
YOU CANT EXPLAIN IMAGINED PAIN
I CLOSE MY EARS TO ALL YOUR FEARS
DIVIDE AND FALL
GIVE ME FAITH SOMEONE TO HATE
SOME TIME TO WASTE
MY MORAL GROUND MY FREEDOM FOUND
NO WORDS ARE SPOKE ALL TRUST IS BROKE
YOUR BIASED VIEWS MAKE FRONT PAGE NEWS
IM ON YOUR THROAT COS OF YOUR VOTE

AND WHILE WE FIGHT WE LOST THE SIGHT
OF WHAT WE’VE LOST THE HIDDEN COST
WHATS THIEVED FROM US DECEIVED AND BUST
STAB OUR OWN BACKS FALL THROUGH THE CRACKS
OUR POCKETS PICKED OUR JUSTICE TRICKED
THEY’VE PLANNED IT ALL DIVIDE AND FALL

  1. Soundwise it's a lot like the recent Bug Central album
