about

The beauty of good solid hardcore tunes is that there are no boundaries as to who can write them. Take for example Dag Nasty. Not long out of their teens and having cut their teeth in some of the best bands ever, they continued to write and hit after hit. The lineup changed as the Dag Nasty sound developed, they carried on being absolute leaders, not followers. I could honestly still listen to Wig Out at Denko’s or Field Day every day and not get bored. So when two of the driving forces behind those recordings announced they had some new material about to drop damn, right I was excited.

The great news is that Field Day (the band) have got it nailed. They have managed to retain the sound and feel of those earlier albums, without recycling or rehashing old ideas. These two songs are fresh and uplifting and every bit as good as I would have hoped. Searching for the Answers starts off furiously with a pounding old school hardcore beat before locking into a mid-paced groove while the second tune We Are the Change is a bit slower, with some fantastic, melodic guitar breaks that we capture exactly what you want to hear. Both songs have big singalong chorus, designed to put a huge smile on your face. Expectations not just fulfilled, but smashed into pieces. Welcome back! Tom Chapman.

lyrics

In the blink of an eye we watch our lives
Moving faster every year
We stand in frustration at man kinds denigration
Now’s the time to take back the wheel - take back the wheel

We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the resolution
We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the revolution
We are the revolution

We’re done biting on our lips, pushing up against the tide
Wishing one day you will change
In the middle of the night when you least expect it
Your power will just fade - fade away

We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the resolution
We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the revolution
We are the revolution

We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the revolution
We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the resolution

We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the revolution
We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the resolution

We are the change - We are the solution
We are the future - We are the revolution

This band. Hands down my favorite Discord band. They’ve had a powerful affect on my musical growth when I was young. And they’ve stayed there locked up in good nostalgia. Timeless. So I was worried to know they were doing anything new. PLEASE NO! I though to myself. Don’t let the new stuff suck and poison it! Well… Let’s say I’m thankful. A new chapter is born. Solid. guy_lane

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
