Brothers We were so young So undeterred They found a way to take advantage And we have become the sharpest edge of spears they cast I gave them my gun, my heart, my trust There’s nothing left Send in the slaves to fight the war And on all sides the ones that die are always poor We pray to the gun but nothing changes Brothers Forgive me Forgive me for saying this Ideals don’t die Power’s not shared Behind a gun is no time to face it No matter the side or by what means or for what ends You have to decide to be the tool or be the hand Send in the slaves to fight the war And on all sides the ones that die are always poor We pray to the gun but nothing changes Brothers Forgive me Forgive me for saying this I believe no light is waiting Far away Seize your day Send in the slaves to fight the war And on all sides the ones that die are always poor We pray to the gun but nothing changes Brothers Forgive me Forgive me for saying this What they're saying about Against Time: “Against Time have compiled a blistering effort with their self-titled EP, a recording that not only meets the rock standards, but surpasses them and delivers a solid EP that truly proves the weight of this band.” - Robbie Tee, Jamsphere “While many of the riffs and chops you’ll hear from Against Time will be rock-sounds you’re familiar with, they’ve got them assembled in pretty tight & clever ways that really do continue to keep you entertained as they grind through track after track.” - Jer, Sleeping Bag Studios Against Time offers up melodic, heavy rock that stands at the open door of metal and takes a long look inside. Think raw Godsmack spliced with the modern hard rock style of Three Days Grace and a splash of Danko Jones’ positive, good-time rock vibes. Against Time’s music captures some of the best influences of rock, metal, thrash, and even punk. This mix of seemingly distinctly different musical styles is cohesively held together by the modern rock vocal delivery which offers up unexpectedly clean, melodic, scream-free vocals that contrast and yet suit the heavy style. The music remains interesting and varied with an identifiable sound that is plenty heavy yet accessible avoiding the one dimensional dark and depressing format often attributed to this style. Against Time is the gateway drug for those new to heavy music while still giving true heavy fans exactly what they crave. Describing the sound as Heavy Rock seems like a nice fit. While the music is distinct, the band is distinctly Canadian. With members who hail from coast to coast you would be hard pressed to find a better representation of the True North. British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, and New Brunswick are all represented with members who proudly consider themselves French, English, or Acadian but all Canadians. It's only appropriate that this band would call the Ottawa/Gatineau region, the Nation's capital, home. Walk into this jam room and you'll find conversations flowing in English and French simultaneously. Membership in this band requires the ability to swear in both official languages. Heavy music. No prozac required. Against Time.
