"Every year, over 12 million women and men are victims of domestic violence," the band say. "For a very limited time (until 10/29) we will have these shirts for preorder on our website – a reminder that there are survivors and victims with voices that need to be heard.

Of course, Knocked Loose have never shied away from tackling important issues, with frontman Bryan Garris unveiling his most personal lyrics to date in new album A Different Shade Of Blue.

“I think I’m always going to use lyrics as personal expression and to get things off my chest – it’s very therapeutic," he told Kerrang! earlier in the year. "Throughout the Laugh Tracks cycle, when I started doing interviews, it was something that I had to get used to – having people that I don’t know asking me very personal questions. I don’t really like talking about super-personal things in interviews, so I try to keep that within my lyrics. That made it even more personal, I guess, because it’s even more private.”

When asked about if he ever felt nervous in opening up, knowing that Knocked Loose now have more listeners than ever, he responded: “Sometimes I’m lucky enough to have somebody find me at a show and tell me that my lyrics have helped them in some way, and that means the world to me. It’s amazing, and I always hope that I can provide that service for somebody. But for me personally, it’s been a weird thing to accept, knowing that a lot of people that I don’t know are going to know all these things about me.”
