WHAT I THINK THE SONG IS ABOUT:
"No Break Till Dawn" appears to be a tongue in cheek type of song about how the band will be relentless, with anything! Whether that's practicing, rehearsing, touring, partying or trying to be the best band around! There's no rest in them and there's no quit. The train keeps a rollin'!

MY THOUGHTS ON STRIKE TWELVE:
Strike Twelve formed as a band back in 2003. This Temecula, California band started when the members were still just sophomores in high school. The band's first release was an EP titled "Born Naked Die Naked" in 2006. From there the band inked a long term deal with Felony Records. They dropped their first full length studio debut album in 2009 called "Killing California". Strike Twelve started gaining some buzz in the California punk scene with their energetic songs and raucous live performances. In 2012, Strike Twelve dropped their sophomore effort, "Moonshine". 2015 saw the release of "Huminsanity" while 2017 saw the release of "Down With The Ship". In 2018, the band released their very first live album, "Does It Live" through their bandcamp page. Strike Twelve's brand new full length studio album, "Last Band Standing", is slated to be released in just two weeks on June 30, 2023. As I said earlier, Strike Twelve is a very energetic band. You could really hear a band maturing from album to album without losing any of their youthful spunk! I first heard of Strike Twelve when "Killing California" came out in 2009 and to this day, the title track is still my favorite song by them. Overall they are a very good punk band, maybe a little lite lyrically. Definitely worth a listen for sure.
