“After all these years, time is still the enemy“. With that single line, the purpose of “New Reality “is brought into brutal focus. After years in the wilderness, 50 Lions have returned. Leaner, harder, stronger and with a confidence and rage that only experience can bring. 

Never a band to pull their punches, 50 lions have forged an album for the times. Hard times. From the frantic outset of "Cause & Effect” the impact is felt like a reality check that has been years in the making. “ from the street to the loading docks, the construction sites to the office blocks”. The rally cry for a generation of stagnation rings loud and clear. These are songs crafted for the here and now. Vital, visceral and violent.

From a sharpening of intent and vision the album paints a picture of modern life in the grind. This is an album weighing  heavily  in the harshness of life, death, sacrifice and social decay, the sound life pushed to breaking point. For the time 50 Lions have spent away, they have lost nothing in their ability to craft a sonic sledgehammer, whoever this album travels deep into new territory, and it’s in the new sounds that we find some of the best work the band has ever created. For all the muscle the band packed in its familiar prime, it’s the unexpected twists and turns of the sonic landscape that truly make this album hit hard. With the dynamic slowly seeping in as the album progresses, to the most anthemic and unique moment the band has created in  “A Thousand Cuts”, the writing is on the wall. This is a “New Reality” and it belongs to 50 Lions.
