YOUR DEMISE
The Golden Age is coming and there's nothing you can do.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but being able to appreciate something in the very moment it exists is far more important. And knowing when something great's about to happen? That's the most exciting time of all.
Your Demise, one of the UK's hardest-working and most-respected bands are about to enter their own glory days with the release of new album The Golden Age. It's a fearless summary of modern punk rock all tied up in the band's unique style, and the year ahead will see YD leaving the basement scene behind and bravely breaking new ground, starting with a stint on prestigious Australian festival tour Soundwave, before headlining across Europe in March and the UK in April, where they will top the bill of the Rock Sound Impericon Exposure Tour.
The Golden Age (produced and engineered by Matt O'Grady and mixed by John Mitchell) is a record that deals with friendship, love, getting high, getting low, band life and real life honestly and intelligently. It also marks McRae blossoming into a better frontman than he's ever been before, while guitarists Stu Paice and Daniel Osbourne, bassist Jimmy Sampson and drummer James Tailby prove they're more than capable of switching style almost at will. You think you know Your Demise? Nu-uh.
The record features guest appearances from You Me At Six's Josh Franceschi and letlive.'s Jason Butler, as well as David Wood from Down To Nothing and Terror, Theo Kindynis from Last Witness, Ajay Jones from Brutality Will Prevail, Louis from Breaking Point and Dannika Webber from Evarose, a spread which shows the respect YD command worldwide.
“Those guest spots weren't written with anyone in mind, we just wanted our friends on the record,” continues Ed. “We love sharing what we're doing with them. We're still down with hardcore bands, and they want to be on our record, but then Josh is in a ridiculously big band and he wants to be on our record too. It shows that no matter what you do you still have friends.”
