DISTRICT 13 released their new video for the song "Is This the Way" from their current album "SOMA". With "Is This the Way" the 3 guys from U.K. show, that they also have a knack for ballads. A ballad that is not only melodically powerful, but whose lyrics also get under your skin.
"Is This the Way" was originally written by the singer, Jon Wild, as an acoustic version. At a time when Rich Vanderpuije (bass), Asen Milushev (drums) and he did not know each other. At a time which was anything but easy. The key questions are: Do we ever make the right choices in life? Do we ever find a place or a time that feels right? . . .
Personal Quote of Jon Wild:
“I felt lost at the time of writing this song and
could not see the light at the end of the tunnel.”

District 13 are a heavy alternative rock band based in London. The band came
together when Asen (Drums) and Richard (Bass) placed an advert for a singer to
start a new project. Jon (Vocals/Guitar) applied and District 13 was formed.
District 13’s aim to infuse Heavy Metal and Punk to create their own unique sound.
They have been described as a cross between Black Sabbath and The Ramones.
The songs are mostly uptempo heavy and the band prides itself on a high energy
stage show. Lyrically the songs are made of dark themes.
