''As a band we are working on increasingly promoting issues that continue to affect our fans''

We want to help and work along charities who deal with issues covering domestic violence, mental health problems, bullying and addiction problems. We have begun our first issue, which is domestic violence within relationships, and hope we have portrayed this as best as we can in our upcoming video.

Covering issues such as these is one close to our heart as a band. Spreading awareness and possibly encouraging those to seek help is what we truly aim to reflect in our song 'Love is blindness,' - Once in a violent relationship many victims can try to convince themselves they are fine with their partners violence, or simply may not understand what they are doing is wrong. a lot of people are also scared of leaving the relationship in case the violence comes to a point of permanent damage, or in fear of angering their respective partner.




     In an emergency or if you have been affected by domestic abuse, you can call these numbers:

Domestic abuse by definition is where one person in a relationship tries to control and dominate the other person in the relationship. The 'domestic violence,' part is the physical part of the abuse, but it can be emotional abuse, or verbal abuse. Abusers use guilt, shame, intimidation and fear to maintain this relationship. Although in our video we have chosen to use a heterosexual couple of an teenage age, it can happen in all kinds of ethnicity's and relationships. However, we hope in our attempt to reach out to our fans, our choices have reflected and helped relate to a lot of our teenage fans. As an alternative rock band, we feel this couldn't be a better topic to relate to who we are.
