Newtown Neurotics Return With New Single “Climate Emergency” & Announce New Album

In a world full of charlatans, honesty and compassion have great value, something that is clear on the Newtown Neurotics new single release, Climate Emergency, that is taken from their forthcoming new album, Cognitive Dissidents, that is due out via Cadiz Music on October 21st. We are facing an ever-approaching climate collapse and the immediacy and urgency for the need for action is portrayed in this powerful song.

From the attention-grabbing guitar riff at the start of Climate Emergency, until its dramatic end, you can almost feel the journey that the band has been on since their formation in the late seventies, to the present day, as detailed in their Kick Out film that is set to be released in early 2023. The track is full of the desire to bring hope to those that need it, and strength to those it thinks lack it. We can work together to prevent catastrophe, but we need to do it together. 

Written and recorded by the band along with the rest of the album whilst in lockdown, during which the world tottered and swayed from the moorings that had previously anchored our lives, and Corona virus struck down our loved ones and threatened us all, music became, as it always has been, one of the most important things to sustain us through our troubled times. This is Newtown Neurotics music at its finest. In its form and content, it destroys complacency and dogma with reason and logic and a melody that stirs the head, the heart, and the soul.

The Newtown Neurotics are appearing at Brighton’s Pipeline tonight and London’s Triangle on the 27th July ahead of a trio of appearances at this years Rebellion Festival where they will grace the Empress Ballroom, Literary and Almost Acoustic stages over the weekend.
