The Assist – Life
The Assist - Life
Release Date: Out Now
It’s impossible to ignore or deny
the courage and hard work of the NHS at the moment so it’s great to see Midland’s
indie outfit the Assist doing their bit to raise money for those working so
bravely on the frontline to keep us all safe. ‘Life’ is the release fronting
the campaign to raise money that should have been duly given by the Tory
government over the past decade and it is an anthem in waiting. “We’re waiting
80% of our life which leaves us precious little time to do all the things we
like, money can’t buy time but it’s essential for this mountain we climb” they
sing over some chillingly sinister atmospherics. There’s the swagger and banter
of Reverend and the Makers, the spit and anger of Narcs, and the abruptness of
Cassels blended with the confidence of Kasabian. The drums roll like a military
band and the energy builds like tension before erupting into the kind of song
that makes you want to do something, anything positive. Perfect music to shake
you out of your lockdown malaise and get you up and at ‘em for another day
closer to reality.
