Born and raised in the urban sprawls of the North West and Midlands,Hell’s Ditchis a new British punk rock group with“total heart and determination”setting a course to spark a new rebellion on our shores. Today they unveil their debut EP'Take Cover'viaSilent Cultand plant their flag as one of the most exciting new punk bands on the underground circuit.
Featuring recent singles ‘Take The Night Off’and‘Ghosts’,the ‘Take Cover’ EP is one for the working class, it's gritty, heartfelt and powerful.
"'Take Cover' is all about themes of perseverance and survival in uncertain times. We started writing these songs in 2020. As bleak as things were then, there was a feeling that maybe, just maybe we could rebuild and reorganise society in a way that would benefit everyone in a fairer way when we emerged. That quickly went out the window and for a lot of people, life is just as desperate as it was then. So lyrically a lot of these songs are underpinned by a sense of frustration and anger that the same old tricks are being played on the public - people's wages go down, public services suffer and the same fat cats get rich. At the same time, there's a hopeful manner to these songs and a strong belief that collectively, and united we can claw back some ground and regain our dignity.” -Vocalist, Nick Davis.
