A campaign started on July 1st, 1916. A campaign of muddy, rat-infested trenches, endless artillery barrages, and cracks of rifles in the distance. A campaign of unsettling night raids, close-quarters combat, and suffocating fumes of chlorine gas.
The sound of the treads of the first tanks grinding the bones of those long dead on the battlefield to dust and of the screams from no man’s land of men bleeding out in the night from the previous day’s failed offensive.
This is the soundtrack for that campaign. Welcome to the Somme.
