Chastity share new single "Chains"
Chastity

Channeling the feeling of youth on the fringe, Chastity focuses on the earnest connections found amongst the pent up suburban blue-collar. Living in Whitby Ontario, Brandon Williams creates music in a space of urgency, melody and chaos – an artifact of youth culture that bridges isolation and collectivity. Chastity is a protean temperament in punk, in recent history sharing the stage with Priests and Fucked Up, the project carries in the ethic of solidarity, antagonistic to the status quo.

Brandon Williams on Chains:

Chains – a progression in intensity resulting more from a rapidly changing world than the artist themself. Williams explains, ”
when I’m drawn to write I’m either sad or I am pissed. The world has changed since writing my last release, and both the sad and pissed feelings have since increased.”

Lyrics to “Chains”

I’m the piercing in the wrong ear,
The sinking that you still feel,
It’s fear.

Don’t waste your pain on hate,
Start your life outside of the chains.

Come the chance to fight,
Choose who you stand beside,
But choose who you defy.

Don’t waste your pain on hate,
Start your life outside of the chains.

Chains EP is out October 13th on digital and cassette on Captured Tracks.
