    With great frustration for the state of the world and with their country, Toledo, Ohio Oi! band The Old Breed have
    joined with fellow working class punks Squared Off to put together a new four song split. Each group provides
    two tracks full of grievances aimed at society and the lives that we are forced to live. The result is 10 minutes of
    frantic punk rock resentment that will get your blood boiling.
    The Old Breed bring more fury than they ever have before, contributing tracks that seethe with anger. Fully
    conveying their frenzy and exasperation, the band holds nothing back in decrying the broken systems of the world
    on some of their fastest songs to date. However, their counterparts in Squared Off take a more nuanced approach
    and mix their aggravation with upbeat rhythms and catchy choruses giving their half a more snarky tone.
    This split isn’t for those who are soft and tender – but then again, neither is modern life! It is being self-released
    and will be available on May 13, 2023

    Includes unlimited streaming of The Old Breed/Squared Off split via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.     ... more

lyrics

Where’s the hope to stay afloat/Generations left behind
You sell a dream the same old scheme/Like wolves herding the blind

It’s the same old shit every single day whatever became of hope and change
They just look us in the eye and repeat the same old lies and all they ever do is pass the blame
The left just blames the right the right just blames the left nothing’s ever done for those they represent
A nation led by the elite followed blindly by their sheep who only ever want to tow the line

Carrier politicians expanding the tradition grooming their successors along the way
Ensuring that the choice is the lesser of two evils and we’re left to wonder why there’s never any change
It’s a cycle of corruption that knows no end and it’s funded by corporate greed
Gotta keep the rich rich and keep the poor poor so they can keep us bagging for relief
