We recently had the opportunity to check out the new single, “Loaded Gun,” from Manchester indie-rock four-piece The Falls via Revo Pro. You can listen to “Loaded Gun” Here

“Loaded Gun”, is the third to be taken from their upcoming second studio EP ‘Would You Do It All Over Again’ which arrives on September 18th 2026 via Revo Pro.

The Falls , have a brilliant one of a kind tight and powerful sound that is on full display on “Loaded Gun” .

Produced, mixed and mastered by Luke Owens (SHADE, Montello, The Sprats), ‘Loaded Gun’ is the darkest, most confrontational of their EP’s singles to date, marking a darker turn for the band. Driven by crashing guitars, relentless momentum and emotionally charged lyrics, the track explores guilt, pressure and the inescapable consequences of your mistakes slowly catching up with you. Positioned at the centre of the five-track EP, ‘Loaded Gun’ serves as a pivotal moment in the record’s narrative, marking a shift from the lighter, more escapist themes of earlier tracks towards darker and more unpredictable territory. The shift is structural and deliberate, from a band that thinks architecturally about their records, understanding that emotion in music is not just about the individual songs but about the journey between them.

The roots of ‘Loaded Gun’ trace back to a scene from Martin Scorsese’s crime masterpiece ‘The Departed’. In the scene, mob boss Frank Costello played by Jack Nicholson at his most menacing, confronts a young Colin Sullivan about the choices that await him. The loaded gun of the title is not a weapon, but a metaphor; No matter which path you take, the outcome is already written and the bullet is already in the chamber. Harrison took this idea and turned it inward, building a song about confronting your mistakes and the feeling that, no matter how far you run, your mistakes will eventually catch up with you.

Speaking on the track, vocalist and lyricist Harrison Sharp says, “‘Loaded Gun’ is probably one of our darker, more rocky tracks and brings back a similar sound to some of our earliest releases. It’s based on a line from Martin Scorsese’s film The Departed, one of my favourite films. It’s from a scene where mob boss Frank Costello, played by Jack Nicholson, talks to a young Matt Damon about life choices; whatever you choose, the outcome will be the same. No matter how far you try to run from your problems they always find a way to catch you, there is no escape. ‘Loaded Gun’ is a story of confrontation of toxic relationships, of being trapped in something with no way out. It’s a song we’ve been playing live for a long time, so we’re buzzing to finally get it out there properly.”

We are all in on The Falls and their powerful new single, “Loaded Gun” . This is definitely one you can’t miss.
