Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Wednesday evening (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon DATE GOES HERE: from Friday afternoon you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch558

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. 

We also don’t accept short previews or SoundCloud Go tracks that can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which cannot be included in playlists. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks (and remixes of tracks) that have been previously submitted, and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

Full Inbox: Batch 558

This is a previously unheard track that was the B-side to the single 'I Don't Want To Dance' that was due to be released just weeks after the band split up back in 2008.... We Are Back!

LYRICS:
Am i the only one here out of place
Riding the wrong way in a one horse race
They'll ride themselves into an early grave
That's just the way it goes

It's so rare that it's win and not lose
When life is dealing you bruise after bruise
Or is that just another weak excuse
For all the folds you made

So if you're gonna go and roll that dice
Don't expect a real fair fight
And if you're gonna play the game
You might find that's all in vain
If another winner takes it all
Pride comes right before the fall
So when you're feeling low
I hope that you know
That's just the way that it goes

Take another step into that light
It's a risk but the gold is in sight
Play it safe and you'll have nothing to show
That's just the way it goes

Instead you're gonna step up to that line
Put your life in your hands one more time
Then you're gonna feel the highs, the lows
The prize, exposed, the signs, you know it's true

If you're gonna go and roll that dice
Don't expect a real fair fight
If you're gonna play the game
You might find that's all in vain
If another winner takes it all
Pride comes right before the fall

So when you're feeling low
I hope that you know
That's just the way that it goes

One Horse Race

Some good news in a bad world. Like the return of a prodigal son, we're back with a new track called, rather predictably, "Prodigal Son". Hopefully this is the start on a 'single per month' strategy for 2025, but like all January gym memberships maybe we'll have run out fo steam by February. See you on the treadmill....

Prodigal Son

Doomsday

‘Who I Am’ delves into the psyche of a delusional, narcissistic man trapped in a false reality. Gritty, hazy, and dark, the track explores his inability to see his own flaws, instead blaming his past lovers for not understanding him. With furious choruses, honest vocals, brooding gothic melodies, and conflicted lyrics, this alt-rock anthem paints a haunting portrayal of self-deception and a fractured identity.


Who I Am
