about

‘Sea Change’ is the debut full-length album from BAIT. It’s a digital post-punk lockdown docu-record which watches the clock, gets the jitters & lashes out just like the rest of us. It’s an internal monologue that accounts the anxiety, the struggles, the pressures experienced living by the sea during an international pandemic. Visualized and written by Michael Webster, creatively cultivated together with band members Jim Webster, Luke Branch & M R E who also produced the record.

Lead single ‘DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA’ is high intensity, fast paced - like you’re running from something in a video game, if you could express a panic attack using sound & vocals - this might be it! Sarcasm & humour lyrically, poking fun at the intensity.

“This is the most intense & frenetic track from the record. Many of us have an expectation to receive instant gratification, which was amplified through lockdown. This is a ‘note to self’ to snap out of the inpatient frenzy and that there are people that have bigger problems… I really did see a man walking into town carrying a plastic bag with no trousers on” - Michael Webster

lyrics

It’s the end of the world in my coz I haven’t had a text back in under six seconds now.
It’s the end of the world in my coz I haven’t had a text back in under twelve seconds now

DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA

There’s a man walking into town and he’s carrying a plastic bag with no trousers on.

I’m crying over silly things.

It’s the end of the world in my coz I haven’t had a text back in fifty three seconds now.
It’s the end of the world in my coz I haven’t had a text back in under one minute now.

I don’t wanna wait.
There’s a few more complications from when I first sat with a pen and a microphone.
There’s a guy blocking every doorway to make sure everyone’s got their face masks on!
