‘Permanent’ is the latest self-acceptance promoting anthem from Bad Sounds. On writing the tune, the band say “it’s primarily about acceptance- learning how to accept your own shortcomings, and your own personality. Sometimes I feel like I just mirror the people around me in social situations, and started to worry that I didn’t even really have a personality of my own”. The track takes the catchy hooks and crisp production of pop music to new levels, adding a serious undertone and unique sounds, while keeping their music open to be enjoyed by fans of pretty much any genre. The track comes from their latest EP, Escaping From A Violent Time Vol.1, the first in a trilogy of upcoming releases. - Dan Peeke
