Listen :: Touts - Can't Blame Me

Northern Ireland's indie punks Touts precede their new EP ‘Analysis Paralysis’ - out on November 9 - with its lead track ‘Can’t Blame Me’.

With bassist Luke McLaughlin taking on vocal duties for the first time, the hard-hitting song lyrically takes aim at the "fear-mongering, scaring the people" that dominates the electoral process.

"'Can't Blame Me' is about that period when an election is creeping up," they say. "The media and politicians start their campaigns of fear-mongering, scaring the people, keeping things just the way they like them. It creates unease and everyone falls in line when in fact they should be out demanding a better life, demanding change."
