Aussie punk trio All Hope Remains is back with their latest single, "Standing By," ahead of their upcoming album Find My Way, set to drop on September 20. The band, known for their high-energy performances and catchy tunes, has been making waves in the Australian punk scene for the past five years. With their roots in the Surfcoast region of Victoria, All Hope Remains has built a solid reputation for delivering fast, melodic skate punk that resonates with fans across the globe.
"Standing By" is a powerful track that almost didn’t make it to the album. According to vocalist and bassist Mark Gilmore, the song was buried and forgotten until a sudden inspiration led to its revival. The lyrics speak to the idea of hidden potential, with the chorus declaring it the “best kept secret, hidden away from the world.” Now, it's one of the standout singles on Find My Way, showcasing the band's ability to blend emotional intensity with driving punk rhythms.
The music video for "Standing By" amplifies the song's emotional impact, featuring intense performances from the band and flashing lights that match the song's energy. It's a visual representation of the band's dynamic style, one that has been honed over years of performing in clubs, pubs, and festivals across Australia and Japan.
Find My Way promises to deliver more of what fans love about All Hope Remains. The album's 10 tracks are packed with pop hooks and rhythmic breakdowns, drawing inspiration from the nineties punk era. Songs like "Mirror Mirror" and "Standing By" offer a glimpse into the personal and social themes that the band explores, making this their most compelling work yet. All Hope Remains captures the energetic and emotional essence of melodic punk, making their music both catchy and impactful. I love how their songs blend speed with introspection, staying true to the genre’s roots while still feeling fresh.
As All Hope Remains prepares for their next chapter, the band is ready to take their music to new heights, with distribution deals in place for the UK and North America. Fans can stream "Standing By" on all major platforms and get ready for the full album release this September.
