Fledgling punk band Before They Are Hanged<\/a><\/strong> have released a new single, Ground Down<\/strong>, as they prepare to resume work on their debut album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The four-piece were formed in Derbyshire in February 2018 by Simon (vocals), Dan (guitar), Joe (bass) and Ben (drums), who shared a love of punk and metal music. Taking their name from a novel by British fantasy writer Joe Abercrombie, they quickly began writing their own material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along with classic artists like Rancid, Bad Religion, Ramones and Nirvana, they are influenced by melodic punk bands such as The Menzingers, The Bouncing Souls, The Lawrence Arms, Off With Their Heads and Lillingtons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That much is apparent from Ground Down<\/strong>, which features driving guitar, pounding drums and passionate vocals, with a video set against a backdrop of the rise of right-wing politics and police heavy-handedness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
