Video: Almeida – A Song For Europe

UK punk-thrashers Almeida have premiered a new music video and song.  The video features the song “A Song For Europe,” which was released as a single on October 31 2019 via Lockjaw  Records.  Vocalist Tom West explains the song’s Brexit content:

“The lyrics express how, especially since that time, we’ve felt far more at home on stage and at shows on the mainland than we do back in England, where the atmosphere and attitude to those deemed to be outsiders or ‘traitors’ has become so dangerously toxic.

The ‘elephant in the room’ referred to in the song and its corresponding artwork relates to the inescapable embarrassment that came from introducing ourselves as being from the UK, especially around the time of the referendum. Everybody wanted to ask about Brexit, and of course it was the thing we were least excited to talk about.”
