“It’s just one kiss to build a dream uponâ€
On 25th August ‘On The Fiddle Records’ will release a brand new single by The Levellers entitled ‘Before The End’ which will be available on 7 inch vinyl and as a download.
‘Before The End’ is the closest the Levellers have ever come to writing a love song. With the insistent, pounding drums, Velvet Underground-style violin and shadowy female backing vocals this song oozes charm and has a certain sexiness not usually associated with The Levellers and their anthemic folk-punk songs. Singer, Mark Chadwick, belts out an enormous heartfelt  chorus and it becomes apparent why this band have endured twenty years wowing crowds and notching up fourteen Top 40 singles to date.
“Before the End†is taken from The Levellers’ forthcoming album “Letters from the Underground†which sees the band return with a contemporary sounding rockier edge. The band’s latest work offers a sound and attitude that will not only please established fans but court a new audience and represent the ideas and opinions of a new generation of musical and political dissidents.
