Following their signing to Pure Noise Records and releasing “You’ll Get Nothing And Like It,” Ben Quad is back with new single “Your Face As An Effigy.” Plus, they dropped the news that an EP is on the way. The 5-track Ephemera will be released on October 25 and can be pre-ordered here.
The band shares, “Lyrically, this is the most open-ended on the EP. This song is about finding solidarity within the group you identify with and overcoming the deceivers who seek to ruin you. The music video highlights this concept of solidarity by focusing on the brotherhood aspect of the band. The political undertones of the song title were purposeful in the sense that we wanted to paint a picture of overcoming a system that seeks to destroy us.”
Check out “Your Face As An Effigy” below.
