April 5 street date. 2024 sees the release of Cock Sparrer’s eighth studio album, Hand On Heart. The release of new material from this legendary band is always an event, a celebration, and an addition to the canon of classic punk rock. After over 50 years as one of the most influential punk bands on the planet, this album may just be their final word…although they thought the same of 2017’s Forever, and it turned out there was still lots more to say after all! The 10 tracks that comprise Hand on Heart will thrill the Cock Sparrer faithful with their iconic, anthemic sound, but the band still has surprises and new tricks up their sleeves, including a string arrangement by Simon Dobson (Bring Me The Horizon / Mike Oldfield) that lends a touch of class to the affair. With production overseen by James Bragg & guitarist Daryl Smith, as well as mastering by Grammy-winning engineer Kevin Tuffy, the lads sound better than ever, and for once, more of the budget went into the studio than down the pub! It is the honor and privilege of Pirates Press Records to team with Cock Sparrer to make Hand On Heart available for pre-order on classic 12” 180 gram black vinyl, 12” picture disc with alternative artwork, digipak compact disc, and limited edition ca

April 26 street date. “Here We Stand.” It is a phrase that means a lot to the legendary UK punk band Cock Sparrer. It was the title of the band’s 2007 LP, which announced their arrival in the 21st century. It cropped up again as a rallying cry in the lyrics to their 2017 anthem “One by One.” And now it is the title and chorus of a brand new single off the band’s farewell studio LP, Hand on Heart. In the lyrics to the song, it is a message of unwavering support for their friends and loved ones through hard times. It is a statement of resilience, encouragement, and having someone you can count on. As is the case with many Cock Sparrer songs, these themes are expressed not through generalizations, but through the story of the life and struggles of a single character, who represents everyone the band considers kindred spirits. This rousing anthem is paired with “We’re Alright Now,” a B-side exclusive to this release, which champions the act of standing up for what you believe, no matter what is popular, while also being aware of changing times.
