![]() We really pride ourselves on the voyage through light and shade that we’ve offered listeners with our previous albums, and we’ve pushed the boundaries on that even wider with this album,” Adam continues. ![]() “It’s full of emotion, chaos, joy, mistakes, beauty, love, death and everything in between. John comments, “This record for me is a snapshot of the world in pure chaos: a meditation on isolation and conflict, heartbreak and dystopia – but with a little faith in humanity thrown in for good measure, also. Taking inspiration from the turmoil the world is throwing at us, the album serves as a souvenir of darker times but, more importantly, a mantra for hope. The new album follows the release of 2021’s Mojo Skyline, which landed them a UK Top 30 spot and saw Classic Rock Magazine selecting the band’s brass-infused track ‘Jimmy 2 Times’ as part of their 300 th landmark issue’s ‘The Soundtrack Of Our Lifetime’ list, alongside legends such as Slash, AC/DC and Deep Purple. The result is a 54-minute testimony of pure, organic rock’n’roll music.” Just six people constantly feeding off each other 24 hours a day for 7 days to give life to these songs and elevate them to a place beyond our expectations. We locked ourselves away in the studio together for a week to live and breathe the creation of ‘Loco Paradise’. Just as the album cover itself (which features a striking depiction of a winged, crazed eyeball clutching a lightning bolt in its talons) is intended as a piece of art for fans to get lost in, the album is also an experience of immersion.Īdam says, “This album really captures the band at the top of its game. Recorded during the hazy summer heat of 2022, Loco Paradise saw the band take residence together at the divinely picturesque Chapel Studios in Lincolnshire, with producer Charlie Russell (Kasabian, Jamiroquai, Wargasm) at the helm. Next thing we know, it’s 4am and we are all sinking whisky round the pool table having just smashed out this monster of a rock song!” We started tracking the song at around 10pm thinking we’ll just get the drums done so we can get stuck into it first thing the next day. Guitarist Adam Mackie adds, “‘Road To Hell’ sums up the vibe and making of this album perfectly. It stands as a real statement of intent from what’s to come from the London based rockers, whose raw energy and fire is equally matched to their stellar songwriting across the album’s 11 tracks.
