“All On Me” arrives with the urgency of a band stepping into its own weight. As a centerpiece of Before We Sink‘s debut EP, the track feels like a declaration, an admission that responsibility, expectation, and consequence have all converged at once. Rather than resisting that weight, the song leans into it, transforming pressure into motion and doubt into momentum.

From the opening moments, there’s a sense that this is music written by people who have lived inside other projects and finally decided to speak in their own voice. Nothing feels accidental. This is a song that understands exactly what it wants to be.

Rooted in melodic punk tradition, “All On Me” balances urgency with clarity. The guitars drive forward with sharp, disciplined energy, while the rhythm section keeps everything locked in, propelling the track without overwhelming it. There’s a polished edge here, but it never strays into sterility; the song still breathes, still sweats.

The chorus is where everything clicks. It’s built for release, both emotionally and physically, landing with the kind of hook that feels natural rather than forced. The band knows when to push and when to pull back, allowing space for the melody to linger before surging again.

At its core, “All On Me” is about ownership – of mistakes, of choices, of the path forward. The lyrics don’t posture or dramatize; instead, they sit comfortably in the tension of accepting responsibility without self-pity. There’s an undercurrent of resolve here, a quiet understanding that carrying the weight doesn’t mean breaking under it.

What makes the song resonate is its relatability. This is the soundtrack to the moment when excuses run out, and forward motion becomes the only option. It captures that split second between fear and commitment, when everything could collapse, or finally begin to work.

With “All On Me,” Before We Sink makes a strong case for themselves as a band ready to move beyond introduction and into momentum. The song doesn’t overreach or overexplain; it simply stands its ground, confident in its purpose and delivery.

This is melodic punk that understands responsibility not as a burden, but as fuel. If this track is any indication, Before We Sink isn’t just starting something new – they’re committing to it, fully aware of what’s at stake, and ready to carry it forward.
