There ain’t no getting around this, babe
We’ve got to change for good
Just like the prophets of yesteryear
and their dispassionate words
We’ve got to breathe every single breath
Exhale this loneliness
Gasp like it’s understood:
The thrill of this life will slip away
And slip away for good
(Hey) Don’t save a thing for tonight
The universe will give and take
Anything we desire
So live it up till the heat is gone
And this frost turns to fire
Coz we move in illusion
Abide in seclusion
And speak in compromise
But our ashes will burn so bright
More than a thousand lies
Oh no oh no oh no oh no
It’s got to be now

Aloud is, in the parlance of our times, a rock n’ roll band. Since our founding in Boston in the early 2000s we’ve released
5 albums, toured coast-to-coast several times, and even landed music in a few films. We’ve called L.A. home since 2017.
Aloud's latest album Apollo 6 is out May 19, 2023....more
Joe & co. put out one of our favorite albums of 2021, and Bronze Medalist keeps that party going. This is an excellent record worthy of your ears. Aloud
