CMU Approved
Approved: Prides
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 19 September 2016
The year 2016 has been, in the main, let’s be honest, a fucking dickhead. And now the first signs of winter are starting to appear. Not only that, but today is Monday. So I thought we could all do with some fist-pumping, anthemic power pop. Enter new Prides single ‘Are You Ready?’
The song is the first single to be taken from the duo’s second album, which is due out next year. “Lyrically it’s about forgiveness”, says vocalist Stewart Brocks. “It’s about those long nights you stay awake trying to figure out what you want, talking till the early hours, drinking too much, smoking too much, thinking too much. Saying the wrong thing, saying the right thing, saying anything”.
Prides are on tour in October – dates here. Now listen to ‘Are You Ready?’ here:
