The New Single: Divide
The advantages shared the new single “Divide,” featuring rapper Middlesbrough Shakk, which is part of his upcoming album “Constant Noise.”
Upcoming Album and Sound
The second full-length album from the Tesside group will be released by Invada Records on March 21, following their debut record, “Nails,” in 2023. This new single blends electronic elements with the band’s signature heavier sound, incorporating club rhythms and experimental production.
“Divide” presents a punk perspective on society’s internal conflicts regarding various pressing issues,” explains vocalist Kingsley. “It addresses anger towards everything from war, inequality, and misguided patriotism, to poverty, greed, industrialization, and the monetization of hatred. This is an effort to encapsulate everything relevant in 2025, both sonically and lyrically. We aimed to merge heavy electronics with traditional punk and protest sounds to effectively convey our feelings. Collaborating with producer James Adrian Brown, we intensified the beat and invited our friend Shakk to infuse it with passion and heart. This track discusses division but maintains a spirit of unity.”
“Constant Noise” will feature various collaborations, including performances by Peter Dortort, Zera Tönin, and therapy? Neil Cooper. The album has been crafted alongside electronic musician James Welsh and James Adrian Brown.
Discussing the album, Hall states: “Although none of this sounds cheerful, believe me, we were aiming for dark euphoria, alongside a genuine feeling. This is an album we are all immensely proud of. We were aware it would be risky to deviate from the formula of our debut, especially since it received such positive critical acclaim, but we never wanted this group to become predictable or stuck in a rut. We prefer to operate on the edge of uncertainty, as discomfort sparks our creativity. The advantages were developed as a collaborative endeavor, whether that means inviting our partner on stage to sing a folk song or asking the drummer from therapy to perform with us; this is how we thrive, and it will stay that way.”
