The hunger and fire inside this young band has taken them far and wide, and now as the Dragged Through The Dirt cycle comes to an end, the four piece share a taste of what the future holds, with their blast-beat laced track No Brother, No Friend.
“We are about a year and a half on from our debut album, and in that time we have faced tremendous challenges and grown so much as a band and as individuals; so of course, the music we have been writing truly reflects our current experience.” Explains guitarist Nicholas Adams. “When putting this single together, we were extremely fortunate to work with people we’ve always dreamt of. It was a surreal experience to work with new friends like Will Putney, while reconnecting with old friends such as Clayton from the Brain who recorded all our early work, and so it was a very special time for us. We want to sincerely thank everyone who was involved in crafting our finest work to date.”
Justice For The Damned will be rounding out 2018 with a massive run of shows across the country with label mates Alpha Wolf, shows the band know will be something truly special. “As a band we are at our happiest when we are touring and nothing is more fulfilling than touring with friends. Our upcoming tour in December with Alpha Wolf would have to be one of our most exciting tours to date. It’s such a privilege to be able to do what we do and we want to extend our thanks to everyone who has helped put this tour together and everyone who is coming out to one of the shows! This will be one to remember.”
With a clear path and vision ahead of them, the future is looking bright. The band has come a long way from the stages of Blacktown, but to Adams, the best is still all ahead of them. “Those who know us will know that we will never stop doing what we do and that is still the plan. Off of the back of No Brother, No Friend we intend to return to the stage for some awesome shows in the new year, whilst behind the scenes, we continue to write and piece together follow up to Dragged Through The Dirt, the album that started this ball rolling.”
