'Democrats and Republicans' is an ethereal blend of dreamy guitar, soaring vocals, and epic strings accompanied by vulnerable lyrics describing the mental effect that a tense political climate has on the people of a nation. More specifically, how corrupt politicians enable division within society for their own twisted agendas. 

We saw it with a prior US election and how almost everyone had to have a strict belief in either one side or the other with no room for open-mindedness or hearing different perspectives. 

Many people were taking to heart what they heard from a neighbor, social media, or a biased news source and using it to go head-to-head with people from different parties. It was tense and often got violent. 

Instead of bringing people together as music does, it divides them. But at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter what people believe, it’s really all about the personal connection you have with them. 

On a side note, please send the song to a friend or 2 once you hear it because ever since the main rock promo channels went inactive, we haven’t had much help in promoting our stuff. 

It's already extremely difficult for an independent/unsigned band to be heard and our past few releases got slept on pretty hard so every stream, buy, and share will directly help keep WATE alive. 

Tell your friends you know us and that we need help spreading the word. We know all our fans by name, and appreciate you all, so let’s do this together. Let’s show the world we can make WATE blow up just by ourselves. #WATEfamily ✊
