“In the ’90s and 2000s, punk rock songs tended to have simpler guitar phrases than the more intricate riffs of hard rock and heavy metal. They were ideal for learning when I bought my first guitar, yet they still sounded so cool. I remember learning the riffs from Bad Religion’s American Jesus, blink-182’s Dammit, and The Offspring’s The Kids Aren’t Alright, and there’s no greater feeling of satisfaction as a learner when you play a few simple notes and people around you instantly recognise the song you just played. With SiM’s music, though, of course it can’t just be a straightforward punk number.

“The song is about how the concept of justice changes with the times. With the height of harassment issues in our consciousness today, to take the world of sports as an example, training methodologies have changed from the theory of gut instincts to the more scientific, evidence-based theories, and progress is being made to revise and change the rulebooks for how the games are implemented.”
