Reason To Leave (https://www.facebook.com/ReasonToLeavePunk) are Mike (Vocals), Martin (Bass), "Bishop Don" Ron (Guitar) & Jasper (Drums), a hardcore/melodic skate punk quartet from the north west of England. Their influences include the likes of 88 Fingers Louie, Good Riddance, Suicidal Tendencies etc.
June 1st will see them release a debut ep titled Waste Of Our Time and to give us a taste of what to expect they've just unleashed a blistering teaser single from it. You can get it here as a name your price download https://reasontoleave.bandcamp.com/releases
I've been lucky enough to grab the full ep and can confirm that the energy levels displayed on the single are present throughout. It's definitely an ep recorded by punk fans that were turned on to the genre in the 90's. They sound as though they'd be equally at home gigging around California rather than Blackpool but it's all done with enough enthusiasm that it still sounds fresh. They're a new band but they've arrived fully formed and on point.
My favourite song is possibly the title track but you'll have to wait to hear that, in the meantime treat your ears to Can't Stand You...
