Oh Hazar: Justice

Dutch art rock band Oh Hazar are dead serious on their new single Justice, a hard-hitting and unrelenting track about the tension between those in power and those who are left to their own devices. It is rather dark, with a few short breaks as breathers before they go all in again. Nice touch to add some echo to the last notes as the song fades out.
