Fair Do's here to bring 'Love & Light'
Northern melodic hardcore group Fair Do's return with a blistering new single. Love & Light is the second taste of their heavier, mature sound; intertwining harder metal influences into their signature technical, melodic style.

Love & Light is a song of duality: making a mistake and regretting it, but being unable to stop the destructive behaviour. “The little birdie [in the lyrics] is a reference to the world’s habitats, which are being destroyed by the hands of humans all the time,” explains lyricist and bassist, Josh Sumner. “The bird also represents something within us all: an innocence that is inevitably destroyed through our own actions, like existing in a declining state that’s made worse by abusing drugs or alcohol, etc.
“We know how bad things are but we still engage in it - going out and drinking too much, staying up late playing video games, or arguing with our friends in kitchens. All these moments and choices get weirder and more problematic over time, but we still do them.”
Fair Do’s’ will be releasing a string of singles to tease fans in 2021, demonstrating the development of their sound into a heavier, richer mix. Dipping their toe into heavier and darker waters, Casket is the introduction to the mature Fair Do’s sound. It is every bit as technical as their fans would expect, but with a hardened edge brought about by the political battering the left wing has seen since their last release in 2018.
