"Break The Chains" was originally released (in a fuller arrangement) as a single in July 2021 & appeared on The Rising's ‘No Hope Without Love' EP in October 2021.
This acoustic version is exclusive to 'Hot Music Live Presents Volume Eight'
"Themed around a sense of aiming for global emancipation from negative elements such as racism and gender inequality in favour of a greater sense of common experience and need, this is the song in which the overall EP's name crops up among the lyrics. Painting an apocalyptic picture of what the alternative might be (and if we don't watch out is already shaping up to be), not only is the singing intense but the backing is built to match: something far further along the band's spectrum of edginess than normal, the guitar solo in particular sparks with a righteous anger."
