HAWXX have released a brand new single!
Titled Resistance Is Justified, the track is the first glimpse of the London-based progressive punk metal band’s upcoming second album, the follow-up to 2023’s Earth, Spit, Blood And Bones, due for release in Spring 2026.
Speaking about the track, vocalist Anna says, “Resistance is Justified is a song about my good friend Jordan who has been in prison for one year without trial. He and 23 others known as the Filton 24 have been imprisoned for allegedly destroying weapons in the Elbit Factory that were due to be sent to Israel. Since then the UK Government has called them a terrorist organisation and anyone seen to be publicly supporting them has been arrested. This song condemns this decision of the UK government and condemns the silencing of our human right to protest injustice. I have played Jordan the song over the phone while he is in his cell.”
This song features collaborations from Ahmed Muin Abu Amsha, (a talented music teacher in Gaza whose singing with children over drones circling above have gone viral on social media), members of the Greek Flotilla mission to Gaza (including Anna‘s cousin Ploutarxos), Logan Grendel, PETROL GIRLS, Jasmine 4.t., members of Choir Noir, Soren Bryce, Millie Manders, ORCHESTRATED DISCONTENT, Ruby Wednesday and more artists in support of the cause. There is also a sample of Jordan’s sister Brogan, giving a speech in the song. Clarinet by Alice Mary Jelaska, accordion by Bel Comeau.
