Listen To Two Neck Deep B-Sides, Beautiful Madness And Worth It

While we're still patiently awaiting news on a new Neck Deep album, the Wrexham pop-punks are tiding fans over with two brilliant B-sides, Beautiful Madness and Worth It.

The songs are taken from from their The Peace And The Panic album, in a package that was released in 2017 on a bonus version of the record made available at the likes of Target in America. If you weren't able to pick up a copy, then you can stream both online right now in a lovely little EP titled The Peace And The B-sides. Nicely done, chaps.

Earlier in the year, we caught up with Neck Deep's Ben Barlow to get an update on album number four, with the frontman telling Kerrang! that he initially felt a lot of pressure going into the new record, but things have since calmed down.

“Oh, I’m much more confident now!” the vocalist said. “We’ve actually written a lot. While we were doing the main bulk of the touring for The Peace And The Panic, we didn’t want to be in ‘album mode’ before that was all done. You’re not always ready for that, and you have to put yourself in a creative space or get yourself in the right mindset. We had such an experience recording The Peace And The Panic – it was born in a pressure cooker, pretty much – that we were just like, ‘Let’s not think about the album – let’s think about it when everyone has ideas to put forward.’ That time came and everyone was writing really good shit (laughs). We started compiling everything we had two or three months ago, and we’re making very good progress. It’s still gonna be a while off, because we want to make sure that it’s the absolute best it can be, but there’s plenty of good shit floating around!”

As for where Neck Deep are going musically? Things are probably going to be a bit different – a move inspired by both outside music that the band have been listening to, and also their general ambitions to grow even more.

“Everyone’s on the same page: that it needs to be a little different, and it’s a culmination of where we feel like we can progress as a band, as well as taking inspiration from music that we listen to,” Ben explained. “I think you’d be surprised by some of the influences and the things that we’ve been writing! But it’s still gonna be a Neck Deep record; we’re not going to be doing anything mind-blowingly crazy, because that’s just not us. I’d love to make a fucking crazy prog-rock record or some shit like that, but that’s not Neck Deep, you know? As long as that core thing that makes it us is there, that’s the most important thing. On this one it’s definitely there – we’re not going to stray super far away, but it’s a good step forward.”
