Ohio-based four-piece post-hardcore outfit Wexford always has something important to say. And their new single, titled "Never Give Up the Fight," is no exception. Standing as a true anthem of resilience, it fiercely confronts the war conflicts currently impacting and affecting our world, particularly in Eastern Europe.
With an explosive and raw sound that reveals the very essence of a skillful blend of 2000s alternative rock and 90s post-hardcore, the talented guys from Wexford make their imposing presence felt all across the sunny shores of Sandusky, through powerful and rapid drum fills, sharp guitar riffs that cut like a knife, and catchy vocal lines that make it almost impossible to resist singing along with them. Under this premise, today they arrive at Bad Wolf Records to present us with their latest studio offering, 'Never Give Up the Fight,' which has a well-defined theme and a strong and clear message: “WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP THE FIGHT!”
Conceived amid the chaos of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Wexford makes no effort to hide their discontent and concern about the horrors of war and that’s exactly how they express it through their impactful lyrics and captivating melodies, which, in their 2 minutes and 56 seconds of duration, will keep you on the edge of your seat with an intense sense of euphoria from start to finish. At the same time, they aim to leave an indelible mark on their listeners, raising awareness about the intricate situation affecting millions of people on the other side of our hemisphere.
This is precisely what is most impactful of this situation; seeing every day how people continue their lives as normal. Partying every weekend, then getting into their cars to go to work on Mondays as if nothing were happening, while not far from home, our neighbors across the pond are dying at the command of unscrupulous leaders who send them to die at the border for their own interests, often creating hostilities that not even the citizens share, ultimately stripping them entirely of the right to live in peace and the chance to grow old alongside their loved ones.
In this way, “Never Give Up the Fight” stands as a true testimony for those who cannot see what is evident. This song rises like a battle flag, a cry of desperation that echoes through the storm with the goal of resonating in an insensitive society that seeks to spark a new 'awakening' in people, where the only shared objective is to put an end to armed conflicts where the only victims are the innocent—people just like you and me.
Wexford's rebellious essence is not only present through their electrifying melodies, but also in the impactful music video that accompanies their musical proposal, pushing the vision of these talented musicians to new horizons. With a captivating '90s-style VHS aesthetic that includes numerous clips of war and protests, the video creates a true impact not only auditory but also visually on audiences.
"Never Give Up The Fight," officially released on April 5th, stands as the band's third studio release and the second promotional single from their upcoming album "Silent Key," which is currently in production and set to be released on all streaming platforms in June 2024.
