1 min read

Jacksonville Beach, FL melodic punks SLED are debuting a new track off their upcoming release “A Better You,” which will be out September 15 via Bird Attack Records. Formerly known as Pinhole Down, now known as SLED and creatively driven by Garrett Wadford of Bird Attack Records and Merchant Vinyl, the band has emerged with a new single called “Connect The Network”.

After years of small tours and festivals around the world, without an actual album being released, the band has finally finished their first official full-length.

SLED has assembled a collective of international members ready to play tours and fests around the world depending on the availability of the main lineup of Garrett Wadford (guitar), Micheal Fitzgerald (Fitzy) on Vocals, Matt Phillips (guitar), Lane Pittman (bass) and Kyle Helm (drums). Other members are Justin VanWestbroek of Guttermouth, Will Frazier of Whole Wheat Bread, Luis Martinez of La Armada and Simo Perini of Guttermouth/This Is A Standoff.

In the punk realm there are many different genres out there, but the band says they like to think they are “Skate Punk meets Stoner Rock.” You be the judge of that. The record was tracked by Daryl Phenneger (notable projects include Evergreen Terrace, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and the latest Guttermouth) along with Dustin Brack tracking vocals. Mixed and Mastered by Andy Carpenter (notable projects include Direct Hit, Supersuckers and The Dwarves).

Lyrics:

We Take Your Money
We Feed You Lies
We Keep You Running
We Keep You Blind

We Make The Cells
We Fill The Jails
We Create Poison Minds

Don’t Worry
You’ll Be Fine
Sit And Stare At Screens
To Ease Your Mind

Destine To Fail
We Will Prevail
To Kill The Human Side

Force Feeding Manufactured Fears
To Satisfy Your Appetite
A Gluttony Of Useless Information
Wove Into The Grid, Surrender You Life Force
Connect The Network

We Own Your Body
We Own Your Mind
You Keep Us Running
We Own Your Time

Destine To Fail
We Will Prevail
To Kill The Human Side

Force Feeding Manufactured Fears
To Satisfy Your Appetite
A Gluttony Of Useless Information
Wove Into The Grid, Surrender You Life Force
Connect The Network
