Neck Deep announce new self-titled album
Following on from the release of their much-loved 2020 LP ‘All Distortions Are Intentional’, Neck Deep have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving early next year.
The new self-titled full-length is being previewed by the new lead single ‘It Won’t Be Like This Forever’, which comes accompanied by a Max Moore-directed video, and is set to be released on the 19th January via Hopeless Records.
Speaking about the new record, vocalist Ben Barlow said, “We’re so stoked to announce our new self made, self titled record. With a return to roots approach, we made this record ourselves at our warehouse in North Wales, with Seb at the helm, and the rest of us over his shoulder, like it was at the start.”
While adding about the new track, “’It Won’t Be Like This Forever’ came around really easily and naturally. We wrote the chorus just by chance while working on another song and it ended up being our favorite song on the record. We wrote it the first time we got together after covid, down in Wales. I guess at the time we were thinking that ‘it won’t be like this forever’ (guess we were right) but as time has gone on the world has been presented with a whole slew of other problems and so it’s maintained its relevance. You can view it through that lens or you can zoom in and make it more personal, which I ended up doing. Meaning that the tough times don’t always last and having someone to help you through those times is a beautiful part of life and love. It’s a love song, a hope song, and a self-improvement song all in one!”
