Turn of Phrase / Square One "Pale Skies"

7" EP - $8.00
STREET DATE: 4/17/26
CAT#: SDR-161
LABEL: Sunday Drive

While a pale sky evokes beauty, it also feels still. Another ordinary day—a moment to breath, but a need to escape to search for something better. This chasm exists on the split 7” titled, “Pale Skies”. Side A features New York hardcore band, Square One with Side B featuring London hardcore band, Turn of Phrase, thus making this a first co-release, with an unlikely, but sensible paring between Scheme and Sunday Drive Records.

Square One and Turn of Phrase each contribute two new tracks, and their first since their demos released over a year ago. Square One’s ‘The Cycle’ and ‘What’s Real’ are filled with groove only a NYHC band can create, with the likeness of Supertouch or Beyond. Turn of Phrase’s ‘Delirium’ and ‘Still As Sin’ are fast, but full of melody, with palpable energy to dive and shout to; as you would to Lifetime or fellow English band, Leatherface.

“Pale Skies” is for the days you need to breathe and the days that you need to search for the light.
