UK-rock band Neck Deep have shared their newest single “We Need More Bricks” from their upcoming self-titled album, ‘Neck Deep‘, via Hopeless Records. An inspiring politically charged anthem, “We Need More Bricks” hits with explosive instrumentals and thought-provoking lyrics that hopefully leave listeners energized to never stop fighting for what is right.

Neck Deep will be hitting the road in the United States in early 2023 to celebrate the release of their self-titled album, joined by special guests Drain, Bearings, and Higher Power. Later in the year, Neck Deep will be appearing at When We Were Young in Las Vegas where they will be performing ‘Life’s Not Out To Get You’. The band also recently announced a headlining show performance at the legendary Alexandra Palace – affectionately dubbed Ally Pally – in London on March 28, 2024 with special guests Knuckle Puck and Drain.

In the little over a decade since Neck Deep formed in the Barlow brothers’ spare room in Wrexham, Wales, a lot has changed. From the scrappy, naively hopeful beginnings that define the starting of so many teenage bands, the pop-punks have gone on to be one of British Rock music’s most successful global exports in recent memory: top 5 records in both the US and UK, global touring, viral hits and over a billion streams just some of the fruits of ten years spent mastering their craft.

In Southeast Asia, the band has found firm footing with fans across the region, boasting over 2 million monthly listeners from Indonesia alone (their top country for streaming!), including Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines in their top 10 countries by streaming. The band has just finished a successful Asia tour, playing sold-out shows in Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines.

But now, as the band stand on the brink of their fifth, self-titled LP, there’s an acknowledgement that the more things change, the more – in some ways at least – they stay the same.

“This album is the sound of us knowing ourselves and knowing our ability,” explains frontman and youngest Barlow sibling Ben. “It’s unapologetically us. We’re professional songwriters now and we’ve really honed in on what we’re good at – but it’s also about having fun and enjoying writing these tracks. And there are those little sonic signatures in the mix that even I can’t really put my finger on that just make it Neck Deep. It happens when we get in a room together and it clicks – it’s us just doing our thing like we always have.” 

For this record, the band, completed by Ben’s older brother and bassist Seb Barlow, guitarists Matt West and Sam Bowden and drummer Matt Powles, took ‘doing their own thing’ – and only their own thing – to the next level. Eschewing a keen list of collaborators and producers eager to work with one of rock’s hottest properties and choosing, instead, to write and record in their own warehouse space, mere miles from where they grew up. Old school, just like it used to be.
