Raise a fist and rock out to “Emily,” the latest track from Sydney indie-punk act Down for Tomorrow. This track is all energy and aggression, with pounding drums, fuzzy guitars, and powerful vocals from frontman Cody Stebbings.
“‘Emily’ is about a negative interstate experience full of miscommunication, unrequited feelings, and both parties in the wrong,” he explained. “The song is fuelled with denial and confusion, due to how hard it is to outrun and overcome our mistakes and mishaps. I guess we learn from them one way or another. In most cases for me, it’s the hard way.”
It’s taken COVID to slow down this hard-working band who has spent the last six months travelling up and down the East Coast. Their Sydney EP launch sold out and they impressed supporting acts like The Dangerous Summer, The Maine, British India, and As It Is. After quarantine is over, Down for Tomorrow promises to get back out on the road and release some more new music. Until then, crank this one up.
