Neck Deep Release New Single & Music Video “We Need More Bricks”



 UK-rock band Neck Deep have shared their newest single “We Need More Bricks” from their upcoming self-titled album, “Neck Deep”, via Hopeless Records. An inspiring politically charged anthem, “We Need More Bricks” hits with explosive instrumentals and thought-provoking lyrics that hopefully leave listeners energized to never stop fighting for what is right. Fans can stream “We Need More Bricks” here and watch the music video below:


“'We Need More Bricks' is, in my opinion, Neck Deep at their political best”, shares vocalist Ben Barlow. “Touching on everything from the monarchy, immigration, protest laws and international wars. We find ourselves at a cross section in the zeitgeist where bricks could be used to build something, or to be destructive. I’m calling on punks and those that want to make a difference, to do so. As well as being our most poignant political track to date, it also features my favourite riff/ breakdown we’ve ever written, with a mosh call that, I hope, makes the listener think about their role in the world, and to speak up, take action on the many injustices the world faces today. I’m looking forward to playing this one live the most of any track on the record. If this one doesn’t get you moving then maybe Jason Derulo is more up your street”.

The band recently announced that their new self-titled album set for release on January 19th, 2024. Featuring “We Need More Bricks” and recent singles “It Won’t Be Like This Forever” and “Take Me With You”, the new album encompasses everything Neck Deep have excelled at across their career, enhanced and dialed to eleven. “It Won’t Be Like This Forever” was recently added to Australia’s Triple J, marking the band’s first full add on the station. The album and other singles have recently been recognized by Rolling Stone, Grammy.com, Alternative Press, The Noise, New Noise Magazine, and other notable outlets.

“Neck Deep” is available to pre-order now here.

In the little over a decade since Neck Deep formed in the Barlow brothers’ spare room in Wrexham, Wales, a lot has changed. From the scrappy, naively hopeful beginnings that define the starting of so many teenage bands, the pop-punks have gone on to be one of British Rock music’s most successful global exports in recent memory: top 5 records in both the US and UK, global touring, viral hits and over a billion streams just some of the fruits of ten years spent mastering their craft. But now, as the band stand on the brink of their fifth, self-titled LP, there’s an acknowledgement that the more things change, the more – in some ways at least – they stay the same.

“This album is the sound of us knowing ourselves and knowing our ability”, explains frontman and youngest Barlow sibling Ben. “It’s unapologetically us. We’re professional songwriters now and we’ve really honed in on what we’re good at – but it’s also about having fun and enjoying writing these tracks. And there are those little sonic signatures in the mix that even I can’t really put my finger on that just make it Neck Deep. It happens when we get in a room together and it clicks - it’s us just doing our thing like we always have”.

For this record, the band, completed by Ben’s older brother and bassist Seb Barlow, guitarists Matt West and Sam Bowden and drummer Matt Powles, took ‘doing their own thing’ – and only their own thing – to the next level. Eschewing a keen list of collaborators and producers eager to work with one of rock’s hottest properties and choosing, instead, to write and record in their own warehouse space, mere miles from where they grew up. Old school, just like it used to be.
