Perth punks The Decline joined forces with Oceanside, California’s Sic Waiting mid 2020 to release charity digital split “Year Of The Crow / Stay Awake”. We've turned that digital release into a Limited Edition 7" featuring two new tracks from each band. The split brings two skate punk bands together who have been good mates for years, to raise money for international animal welfare organisation IFAW. All proceeds from digital sales of the EP will be donated to IFAW.

“I’ve been working days and nights underneath these neon signs
Nothing lies in store when you give up hoping for
a citizen with benevolence to come and drag me out of the fucking rut I’m in
But the cycle just goes on and on and on”
Babe, we’re losing the light
but we can talk all night if you’re staying awake
If you think it’s the time
we can set our sights and we’ll never explain
how we’re planning our escape
A sad life seeming set in stone, trapped in a house that’s not a home
But the run in place of the every day ain’t the way things have to stay
You gotta find your peace and see reality, you gotta face and kill your darlings
But the cycle just goes on and on and on
Babe, we’re losing the light
but we can talk all night if you’re staying awake
If you think it’s the time
we can set our sights and we’ll never explain
how we’re planning our escape

I love it. Have to agree with still bummed: this packs an emotional punch but rocks hard. I've played this whole album repeatedly over the last week which is unusual for me. Exhilarating, poignant, intelligent, melodic. Robin Ward
SO stoked these guys are back with a new album! This does not disappoint whatsoever, and in my opinion it's their best work yet! Don't sleep on this release if you are into melodic skatepunk. iloveblink182
