These Streets is a punk track by The Kindred, a DIY band from Luton, England. It comes from their 2023 album Alleviate and was released on 13 October 2023.
The song is about passing the torch to the next generation. It recognises that the world the band grew up in now belongs to the young, and that the streets which once belonged to them now belong to those coming up. Rather than looking backwards, it embraces the changing of the guard.
The Kindred formed in September 2001 and mix street punk, skate punk and hardcore.
