Bristol punk rockers Split Dogs have dropped a killer new single and video, Precious Stones.

Taken from the band’s forthcoming album Here To Destroy – which is due out on February 28, 2025 via Venn Records – the track “shines a spotlight on the people that imply false authority in society based on their job title or financial position”, according to Mil Martinez.

“From the obvious traffic wardens all the way up to entitled yoga instructors, nothing burns worse than being falsely reprimanded by another adult so they can attempt to assume dominance over you,” the guitarist explains.

Of the accompanying music video, Mil shares that it was “all about intensity, and hard intent. There’s no escape, feeling like it’s just you in the room and Harry [Atkins, vocalist] has you cornered. Relentlessly demanding that you answer the question, ‘Why does it burn?’”
