It has been some time since Conflict On Ladies’s final file Fantastic Hell, which we named our Album Of The Week. Now the Baltimore punks are lastly asserting its followup, Time Below Stress.
Concerning the lead single “Messages Unsent,” vocalist Shawna Potter says, “That is the primary love music I’ve written in a very long time, actually the primary on this band.” She continues:
It’s about the concept that as soon as you actually have one thing to lose, a accomplice or a life you like (or on this case, my canine Rosie), then you definately begin to care extra about your personal security, about sticking round. You begin interested by your mortality, and theirs, and it’s terrifying. However even when we don’t get endlessly, I like the concept that love can reside on.
We needed to create a video as bittersweet and nostalgic because the music itself so we opted to revisit the primary tour we did post-2020, after we weren’t certain if we’d ever get to play reside music once more. The enjoyment of gathering towards such a tragic backdrop mimics the songs themes of affection and loss.
Pay attention beneath.
