About this Song

This track is one of many that embodies the message that a lot of our songs coming out in the near future tell. That message is that self destruction isn't rebellion. This song was finished instrumentally for like four months before anything fit lyrically. Then, one night, outside The Handlebar in Pensacola FL, our singer eavesdropping heard “Daniel’s on coke again, so Taylor left him.” Then the story just fell together and we had our single.

About the Artist

Dude’s Taken is an half American, half Australian alt-rock band playing out of Newcastle, NSW and bringing a new wave of pop-punk and indie rock to Australia’s live music scene. Drawing influence from bands like My Chemical Romance, MUSE, Cage the Elephant, and Silverchair, they fuse high-energy riffs with emotionally driven lyricism. Dude’s Taken isn’t just nostalgia, though emo and indie at it’s core and pop-punk in volume, the band creates a sound built from an older generation for the new generation of rock fans.
