No Weapon shall prosper against us!

This previously unreleased tune was written in the months following the Grenfell fire and is also in reference to the corporative regeneration and gentrification of inner city communities which lies at the root cause of how and why the fire happened. The song has been played regularly at gigs for years.

Now that we have reached 5 years since the fire and no one has been held accountable, aŕrested or jailed for the crimes committed we bring you this inspirational revolutionary mantra. We release this tune to commemorate those lost and to put pressure on those responsible in what should be considered a joint enterprise.

The vocal was written and performed by Niles 'Asheber' Hailstones who is a resident of the area affected and also contributed towards the grassroots community response and relief effort in the wake of the fire.

The tune and dub side was mixed by dub legend Jerry Lionz.
