The Red Lite District strike a nerve with their ferocious new single We Are All Working Class Now, a raucous celebration of weekend chaos, substance-fueled release, and the gritty unity of the underclass. Fueled by distorted guitars, sneering vocals, and a vicious punk groove, the track captures that moment when the workweek collapses and every subculture—from football lads to punks in studded belts, explodes into reckless abandon.
With a lyrical narrative that jumps from sweaty dance floors to smashed-up nights and chemically-induced oblivion, the song exposes a hard truth: no matter who you are or where you’re from, we all end up chasing the same primal release once the weekend hits. Cider, cigarettes, blow, broken lips, and anarchy, it’s not pretty, but it’s real. It’s human.
We Are All Working Class Now is more than a punk rock banger; it’s a dirty mirror held up to modern life, where social class, identity, and subculture all melt away in the noise of the weekend. The Red Lite District have delivered a raw, unapologetic anthem that rejects polite society and screams in unison: “We’re scum and we’re having fun.”
