Following the release of their acclaimed debut LP, ‘Dual Sides’, alternative hip hop dwellers Ceiling Demons are back. Their new single, ‘Even If’, marks the return of producer Beat Demon, after a mysterious disappearance to the Far East. Reunited once more with Psy Ceiling and Dan Demon in their homeland of the Yorkshire Dales, the track is a hopeful homage to the people who pass through our lives.

Lyrics:

Even if I don't see you I still feel you,
Through the doom & gloom of a lonely evening,
Brought on by self isolation, this is my final confession,
That leads to redemption,
Set by impressions from certain songs, like hymns,
Marley spoke about freedom,
So won't you help to sing,
It's all I ever had in the beginning.
Even if I pissed into the abyss,
The love I shared would fade away & break to bits
But so will all of this.
Sad times pass just like happiness.
Even if I don't say that I love you,
You better believe that this is true.
I may never see you again
But one day we shall meet beyond the moon...

The sands of time spill through our lives,
We close our eyes. We say goodbye.
You have your own hand to hold, explore this world.
Tear drops fall.
What’s it all for? Is this the poison of is this the cure?
Endure as much as you can until you can no longer stand.
Love, it’s unplanned. Whatever happened?
Confront or get caught killing the man.
Demons demand. Do we understand?
Blood on our hands, love in the sand.
Exist past the distance that we imprisoned
And please dream with conviction.
I would fly to the other side just to be by your side,
And I would fly to the other side even if my love had died,
And we will thrive through these dual sides,
But you cannot avoid, creation destroyed,
Truth is we’re all going to die. 

Even If

Ceiling Demons are an alternative art-rap band from rural northern England. Born out of bereavement and taking influence from artists such as The Streets, Joy Division, Tricky and Serengeti. Combining poetic wordplay from front men and twin brothers; Psy Ceiling and Dan Demon over cinematic instrumentals, Ceiling Demons aim to strike your heartstrings with their intense and chaotic performances touching on themes of love and loss. Art over entertainment, delivered with a punk philosophy. The Demons are strong advocates of addressing mental health issues in their art and have worked extensively with suicide prevention charities such as CALM to raise awareness and funds for a cause close to their hearts. They’ve also supported the likes of Young Fathers, Sleaford Mods and Busdriver among other favourites and are championed by Louder Than War and NARC Magazine in the UK for their passionate live shows. Their critically acclaimed album Nil has been released by two independent record labels since it first emerged in late 2017 with Win Big Records initially putting out the album on CD and cassette formats before DIY record label; Butterfly Effect re-issued the album as a beautiful limited vinyl in 2018 with profits going towards mental health charity - Men Tell Health.
