On The World Don’t Owe You Anything – the lead single from Luca Brasi’s upcoming sixth studio album – the band doesn’t pull any punches. The Tasmanian/lutruwita-based group takes all the quiet introspection and soul-searching one does at life’s crossroads and shouts it to the heavens like they’re daring the sky to fight back. It is as much a picture of a band moving forward as it is a reflection on their past. They are battle worn, they are evolving, but they are here, together, as always.
The World Don’t Owe You Anything is a blistering attack. An instant live standard. A request in the making. A throw your sweaty arms around your mates and shout the words until your throat is raw classic. A song for beating chests and ringing ears. For riding life’s bumps and still moving forward. For throwing punches, and giving it every single bit of yourself that you’ve got to give.
At once both an introspective look at self-worth and a fist-pumping missive of determination and strength. “If I’ve already sung all the good words I have left, what good am I to anyone?” vocalist Tyler Richardson asks; a question immediately answered emphatically by the song’s chorus – “THE WORLD DON’T OWE YOU ANYTHING.” Itself, a refrain that begs the sky-flung fists and beer showers of band rooms across the country to come with it.
