I think we’ve been waiting a new Conflict album for a very long time and here it is!

What do I think?

This Much Remains is a fantastic album from start to finish and I don’t say that lightly either!

This is on par with the Ungovernable Force without a doubt and it’s great to see Conflict take those elements and create something special in 2025! I would go as far to say this is the album that will give many people a kick up the arse to fight back against a system so cruel and wrong!

As I said Conflict have matured as a band but you still get some of that shouty Conflict with The Conclusion Exclusion, Cut The Crap (Which also features the late Benjamin Zephaniah and my favourite track on the album), Shut The Fuck Up and A Mothers Milk!

The rest of the album varies in styles but in a good way especially the dub elements that add something extra to the songs. The Impossible Soul, That Other Song and Concluded show this!

Its great to see Conflict pay homage to the past but also living in the present day and that’s why this album will win you over!

Musically there’s no compromise whatsoever!

Colin and Fiona deliver the songs in style with a back line that has got to be one of the best in the business. Gav on guitars and Fran on bass compliment each other in a magical way. Stoo keeps everything together with some fantastic drumming – No wonder he plays for so many bands.

Lyrically Conflict are still as angry as ever and why not?

The world is in a fucking mess and something has to give!

Production wise this album is faultless and while there’s been the odd grumble about the cover I wouldn’t let that put you off!

My final words are let’s make this album the catalyst for change and for people to stand up to the madness we see in 2025!

We need to stand up and fight back!
