Hampshire based pop-rockers Not Advised have been bubbling under the surface within a flourishing UK scene for quite some time now, but ‘Fight For This’, with it’s huge hooks – is the sound of a band ready to break out and really start making a name for themselves.
Having played their P.M.A fuelled brand of rock alongside the likes of You Me At Six, Kids In Glass Houses and The Blackout, Not Advised are no strangers to hard graft and the belief that with the right application and determination you make your own luck and opportunities. Evidence of this is perfectly reflected in the title of this EP, with the five tracks all echoing their uplifting sentiment.
The subject matter of EP opener, ‘A Red Light Situation’, perfectly sums up the band’s happy go lucky outlook, as guitarist, Jack Fairbrother, explains, “it’s about a red engine management light which comes on in our van meaning we have to pull over on the hard shoulder to restart the van. Some of our funniest times in this band have been on the hard shoulder when our van’s broken. I guess there’s a message there, in that although things always seem to be going wrong, we’re having the time of our lives and “wouldn’t change this place for anything”.
