Members of rock’n’roll band The Dark Light have decided to give away their latest single, Glory Days, for free on Brexit Day. The move is an aim to unify people on what has become a hugely divisive subject - on a day expected to be overrun with dismay and disagreement. The European-savvy band penned the song, not as a ‘pro’ nor ‘anti’ stance, but as a reflection on the torment witnessed by many factions of British society during the past three years.

The band is currently active in European business, with planned gigs in Milan and Barcelona for 2020. The video clip for Glory Days was filmed by Sardinian film director Luis Murrighile. The band’s first album was released with Unknown Pleasures Records, a Franco-Spanish music label. Band members hail from a varied background:

Gerard Edwards - voice - Liverpool, UK
Sonny Moylan - bass - East London, UK
Roberto Cicorella - guitar - Bari, Italy
Gorka Ibañez - drums - Basque Country

The band has a collectively strong opinion on political discourse and the social impact that music can have on a community. Their Liverpudlian lead singer notes, “Positively, the band agrees music, art, and creativity will always bring people together.” Adversely, indecision on the Government’s official freedom of movement stance post-Brexit has played a large role in networking for The Dark
Light, as invitations to play on double-bill events in London have been turned down on several occasions by European-based bands since 2016.

All persons of the UK and Europe are invited to download the song for free on Brexit Day from the band’s website. Purchasing the track from November 1st onwards will cost £0.69.

Theme: The song is metaphorical in nature, describing the last few days of a life that has been plagued by disagreement and disharmony during the final few years.

Lyrics:
Memory control me
Can you tell me who I'm to be
I see your face in the ceiling
Still waiting to believe
Consume me
My body
Come on take me
Can't make me stay
Gone are the glory days
Glory days
Gone are the glory days
We're done
Gone are the glory days
Glory days
Gone are the glory days
We won
Plenty fooled me Band:
But I stuck it out and I gave it back
My soul's in almost everything
Be with me while I see this straight
Ignite me
Fan me with fire
Talk tales of me
Teach in my way
Gone are the glory days
Glory days
Gone are the glory days
We're done
Gone are the glory days
Glory days
Gone are the glory days
We won
