Trash Boat release new song ‘Are You Ready Now?’

TRASH BOAT have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Are You Ready Now?, is taken from the St Albans-based pop-punk band’s upcoming new album, Heaven Cant Wait, which is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Hopeless Records.

Speaking about the new song, frontman Tobi Duncan says, Are You Ready Now? is an ode to our seemingly approaching doom as a society. As cliche as that is and as often as people say this from era to era, each generation must learn their own suffering. We see it every day on the news and in our lives, crime is increasing, corruption, depression, global warming, deceit and pain. We all try our best to live under the shadow of these problems while making the best of things, but it remains difficult when we are reminded so frequently of how bad things are getting. The little efforts we as people can make seem more diminished with each passing tragedy and it makes small acts of kindness and selflessness seem futile.

Despite all of this we should all aspire to continue, each of us doing whatever we can to make the world a brighter place. Our music is just one thing we are giving to the world to try and make it brighter. This is a melancholy song, but hopefully it also inspires hope and a sense of honour and duty whilst also reassuring people that its not your responsibility to shoulder the entire worlds worth of burdens. I hope people can listen to this song and feel a combination of responsibility, but also relief and reassurance that there are still things we can enjoy for what they are. No matter how seemingly small.”
