The Amity Affliction Release B-Side Tracks “Midnight Train” & “Don’t Wade In The Water”

by Seneca / Tuesday, 20 October 2020 / Published in News

 

The Amity Affliction has dropped two b-side tracks from their latest album Everyone Loves You…Once You Leave Them. The songs are called “Midnight Train” and “Don’t Wade In The Water” and can both be found below. The band’s frontman, Joel Birch offered the following comments on the tracks:

“‘Midnight Train‘ came about from Ahren just singing ‘midnight train’ in amongst some other garbage when he did the scratch track for me to get an idea of how he wanted to sing the chorus. We wrote the entire song around those two words, which wasn’t actually hard because there was some context to it. It follows an arc of my relationship with my wife, ending where we are today. We’ve known each other for 25 years and the song covers some key moments for both of us.”

“As for ‘Don’t Wade In The Water‘, It’s a song about my mother and father and the role the church had in separating them, and then the role that the church and religion played in my later life. Obviously, it is a play on the old hymn sung by Ella Jenkins, which is a beautiful, beautiful song. I wanted to contrast that with my own personal experience, which was disenfranchising to say the least.

There is a conversation happening within the song between my mother and father which is tumultuous and emotional, with two opposing sides with two opposing ways of viewing the world, and I really feel like it was captured well with the music. Ultimately, it didn’t make the cut, but I honestly like this song as much as all the songs that made it to the record.”
