Leading up to the official release of The Dusk on every online platform on March 31st, MNR will be featuring a new track single from the album each week through the band’s Bare Bones Records label.
‘Sundown In My Town’ is a deep and profound song, perfectly balanced with solid imagery and edgy angst.
“I have alway viewed this as one of my best tunes…a very personal song about your hometown becoming a trap, which is closing in from all directions. I hope you enjoy it and can relate, because life is a trap in which no one makes it out alive. So be sure to take the time to fashion a cage big enough to encompass the Globe!” -Master Nate

War to the Palaces is the third and final single from UK ska-punks Faintest Idea ahead of their raucous new album The Road to Sedition which is due for release on TNSrecords (UK) and Jump Start Records (US) on 31 March 2023.
All ska has been dropped for this track, being a straight up punk song of the rabble rousing variety. Lyrically the song touches upon the ever worsening housing crisis in the UK and urges people to look at who owns the land and property we’re all supposed to live on.
