Quiet Storms and Swelling Tides: Public Order’s “Someday” Charts a Course Through Darkness

Welsh band Public Order’s track “Someday” from their debut EP ‘HELLO’ explores personal struggles and growth through emotional restraint and dynamic sound, showcasing their unique identity within indie rock.

Welsh newcomers Public Order have mastered the art of the slow build on “Someday,” the standout track from their debut EP ‘HELLO.’ Unlike many emerging bands who mistake volume for emotional impact, this quartet understands the power of restraint before release.

The track begins in hushed contemplation before gradually unfurling into something monumental. This dynamic architecture mirrors the emotional journey at the heart of the song—a narrative of personal wilderness that doesn’t shy away from acknowledging the darkness while keeping one eye fixed on possibility. “It’s a journey through longing and self-destruction, holding onto the belief that something better is waiting at the end,” the band explains, posing the essential question: “are you breaking, or becoming something more?”

Grammy Award-winning producer Jim Abbiss (Arctic Monkeys, Adele) provides a finely calibrated production that enhances the band’s natural crescendos without overwhelming their raw emotional core. His experience with anthemic British rock serves the track well, creating space for both vulnerability and catharsis.

What elevates “Someday” beyond typical indie rock fare is how it balances its arena-ready ambitions with intimate lyrical moments. The song functions as both personal confession and collective release—a quality that connects it to the great tradition of British guitar music while carving out its own identity.

As part of their ‘HELLO’ EP, which includes previous singles “STRANGER,” “HELLO,” and “Joker,” this track completes a narrative arc exploring youth’s contradictions—the fleeting connections, impulsive decisions, and quiet revelations. The band describes the collection as “a raw and honest reflection of ourselves… our story of love, loss, and the struggle to make sense of it all.”

After building buzz through relentless touring, including recent shows with Everyone You Know, Public Order appears poised for a breakthrough summer with festival appearances and a headline show at London’s Notting Hill Arts Club. “Someday” provides a compelling argument for experiencing this band in person, where the controlled explosions of their sound can fully envelop listeners in real time, transforming individual struggles into communal moments of uplift.
