Back Against the Wall, Ready to Rise: Mawcore’s Battle Anthem ‘Against the Wall’ Ignites a New War Cry
Mawcore is charging forward in the fight with their latest hard-hitting anthem, “Against the Wall.” This powerful track, now available on all streaming platforms as part of their War Cry album, is more than just rock music—it’s a rallying cry for anyone facing spiritual oppression. Infused with heavy riffs and unyielding lyrics, “Against the Wall” arms listeners with the strength to confront every obstacle and whisper of doubt. Lead singer Joshua Redding explains the song’s unique perspective: “A lot of the time, it’s portrayed that having your back against the wall is a bad thing. But to us, it felt like a place of advantage, where we actually had the upper hand. When you are getting tired, the wall helps you stand.” This raw resilience has made the song a favorite among fans and a powerful weapon against the darkness.
Building on the foundation laid by their album’s title track, “War Cry,” Mawcore’s “Against the Wall” is more than music—it’s a declaration of spiritual resistance. With the unwavering strength of the Gospel at its core, the song reaffirms a powerful truth: we are not alone in the battle. Redding continues, “When we align ourselves with Him, God fights with us and for us. When our back is against Him, He shields us from every punch the enemy throws.” For years, Mawcore has championed this message of hope at major festivals like Uprise, Lifest, SoulFest, and Agape Festival. With “Against the Wall,” they’re inviting a growing audience to stand tall, equipped with faith and fortified by the unbreakable strength of The Wall.
