Stick To Your Guns release new song ‘More Of Us Than Them’
STICK TO YOUR GUNS have released a brand new song!
The new song, titled More Of Us Than Them, is the brand new single from the Orange County-based melodic hardcore band and follows on from their re-worked EP, The Meaning Remains, which was released in February.
The core of the new song was written in 2015 by the late Tom Searle, guitarist of ARCHITECTS, who passed a short time later. Tom sent his song idea to frontman Jesse Barnett.
“The email contained a breakdown that he had written and felt was ‘too STYG to be used for ARCHITECTS,’” Jesse recounts today. “It was massive. We tried for years to turn it into a song to no avail. After Tom’s passing and the effect it had on everyone, Chris decided he was going to give it another shot. He then wrote the music for what became our song More Of Us Than Them.”

Continuing to speak about the new song, Barnett continues, “this song is about understanding that the people who run our day to day lives don’t have our interests at heart. They don’t have the planets interest at heart. All they care about is ever growing profit and power. These people are addicts and they’re addicted to the worst thing possible: Greed. In this system, money is the only thing that buys freedom. But what does this simple statement also imply? What is being said with out actually being said? It’s saying that if you don’t have money, you don’t have freedom. This is an important distinction to make. None of us asked to be born. We didn’t decide to be on this earth. This is an important distinction to make. None of us asked to be born. We didn’t decide to be on this earth. The fact that we have pay walls in front of things that are necessary for survival is fucking criminal and I vow to wake up everyday with the intention of tearing that system down and although Tom is no longer with us, I think he’d be proud of what we all made together.”
