The Smiths Meet Radiohead Meet Social Critique: “We All Lose” - Blindness & Light

Artist: Blindness & Light Single: We All Lose (Radio Edit) Genre: Indie Pop, Post-Punk, New Wave Release Date: March 1, 2024

Blindness & Light's latest single, "We All Lose," doesn't just hook you in with its catchy melody; it propels you into a realm of poignant reflection on modern-day issues. Singer/songwriter/guitarist Colin M Potter delivers potent, evocative lyrics that critique diminutive right-wing views, setting the band apart in their own modern space while drawing comparisons to iconic bands like The Smiths.

This informal collective, spanning from Anglesey, North Wales to Liverpool, Manchester, and Yorkshire, is spearheaded by Colin M Potter, who takes on multiple roles in this track. Their sound, influenced by post-punk legends like Joy Division and The Smiths, is imbued with a sense of raw authenticity reminiscent of the underground scene of the 80s and 90s.

Blindness & Light's journey has seen them garner attention through numerous radio interviews, over 3000 radio plays worldwide, and rave reviews from magazines. Their refusal to conform to trends is evident in their recent split from their previous producer, opting to maintain a human touch in their music production.

Their upcoming second album, currently in production, promises to be a testament to this ethos. As they navigate through this newfound freedom, the band continues to defy expectations, creating music that not only resonates but challenges societal norms.

"We All Lose" delves into the complexities of relationships tainted by hidden right-wing ideologies, urging listeners to confront the consequences of ignorance and prejudice. This track serves as a powerful reminder of the destructive nature of racism, delivered with the finesse of seasoned musicians deeply rooted in their convictions.

As Blindness & Light embark on this new chapter, their dedication to unfiltered, unapologetic music remains unwavering—a beacon of hope in an industry often plagued by conformity.

"Blindness & Light is not just a band; it’s a movement that believes in the power of unfiltered and unapologetic music" - Honk Magazine Nov. '23
