Music: Factory Set – “Days Are Gone”: Northern Nostalgia with a Modern Bite

Factory Set are an alternative rock band from Northern England, channeling the post-industrial grit and emotional honesty that define their region’s musical DNA. Drawing influence from The Stone Roses, Interpol, and Fontaines D.C., their sound blends introspective lyricism with driving guitars and hypnotic rhythms — a meeting point between melancholy and momentum.

Emerging from the UK’s thriving indie underground, Factory Set have quickly earned a reputation for their sharp songwriting and magnetic live performances. Their music feels timeless yet timely — steeped in Northern realism but elevated by cinematic production and a sense of purpose that transcends nostalgia.

“Days Are Gone” is a reflective, emotionally charged track about the passage of time and the ghosts of youth. With its reverb-soaked guitars and yearning vocals, the song captures that ache between memory and movement — the sense that the past isn’t gone, just buried beneath the noise of the present.

Both wistful and defiant, “Days Are Gone” stands as a statement of resilience — Factory Set turning nostalgia into fuel, and loss into light.
