THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT REVEAL VIDEO FOR 'TENDER' RECORDED AT ABBEY ROAD STUDIOS

British band The Temperance Movement are pleased to reveal their soulful cover of the classic Blur song 'Tender'. The video was recorded at the iconic Abbey Road Studios and perfectly captures the open-minded spirit of the band that was inspired by the musical history steeped in the venue that surrounded them.

Watch the video now at https://youtu.be/FLIzySLcdUE

Guitarist Paul Sayer comments, "The main reason for particularly wanting to cover Blur was that they're a band that was really of our childhood. As great as it is when you're growing up to discover all the amazing, timeless bands in your parents record collection, there's nothing like hearing fresh, new music when you're 14 and knowing that you're a part of the generation that's hearing it for the first time. That's what Blur was for us. 'Tender' was the perfect Blur song for us to cover because although they're as indie as it gets that song has a huge amount of soul in it, which is something we feel we have in our music as well."

Damon Wilson adds, "Britpop was possibly England's last great music revolution. We wanted to celebrate those heady days when guitar music ruled the waves and people were excited around the world by British music. With a nod to The Beatles we decided Abbey Road Studios would be the perfect destination. Tender is something of a rarity for Damon Albarn & Blur with its echoes of American gospel. It resonated with our love of soul and roots music."

With a mantra for recording songs in three takes or less, their version of 'Tender' exemplifies the quality of musicianship that sets The Temperance Movement in a class above many bands, and why their eagerly anticipated new album White Bear was tracked in only a few weeks.

Due for release on January 15th, White Bear follows their critically-acclaimed 2013 self-titled debut and was recorded with producer Sam Miller in London, Northamptonshire and Monmouth.

In the first part of a special behind the scenes video series, you can see the band discuss the process behind writing White Bear and get an intimate insight into the recording of one of Britain's great rock bands at home in the studio.  Watch the video at https://youtu.be/Wuk-q2TRfFk

Whilst on the album title, White Bear, singer Phil Campbell notes, "Nick called me with the title which inspired the lyric to the song. It refers to a study by Daniel Wenger on mindfulness and the controlling of unwanted thoughts, testing a quote from Dostoevsky's 'Winter Notes on Summer Impressions': 'Try to pose for yourself this task: not to think of a polar bear, and you will see that the cursed thing will come to mind every minute."

The first single to be taken from the album is the groove-filled 'Three Bulleits'. With an abundance of attitude and swagger it's also the powerful opener to the new album.  Listen to the track now at https://youtu.be/Cv2qj9Vm7uo

White Bear track listing:

1. Three Bulleits
2. Get Yourself Free
3. A Pleasant Peace I Feel
4. Modern Massacre
5. Battle Lines
6. White Bear
7. Oh Lorraine
8. Magnify
9. The Sun and Moon Roll Around Too Soon
10. I Hope I'm Not Losing My Mind

White Bear is available to pre-order now on CD, signed CD, vinyl and limited edition signed white vinyl, and is also available in a number of t-shirt bundles.  Reserve your copy now at http://www.earache.com/ttm

The album is also available to pre-order now on iTunes, including an exclusive bonus track, at http://bit.ly/whitebear-itunes

VEKTOR LAUNCH NEW TRACK 'ULTIMATE ARTIFICER' FROM UPCOMING ALBUM 'TERMINAL REDUX'

The first track from sci-fi thrashers VEKTOR's highly-anticipated third album has landed.  "Ultimate Artificer" is taken from 'Terminal Redux', which is due out in March 2016 via Earache Records.  Ahead of the album release, Philadelphia-based VEKTOR will be hitting the road for their first ever European tour, followed by a North American tour supporting VOIVOD in early 2016.

Listen to "Ultimate Artificer" on YouTube at http://youtu.be/WNmHtWERWyw or on Vimeo at http://vimeo.com/145399767

VEKTOR vocalist/guitarist David DiSanto comments:

"We wanted to come out of the gates full force and showcase a song that represented the album accurately.  'Terminal Redux' covers a lot of ground so it wasn't an easy decision.  In my opinion, this song is right in the middle of the pendulum swing between the ultra-heavy thrash and the more proggy/experimental elements of the album.  It's only the tip of the iceberg!  Since this is a concept album, each song is a different chapter in the story.  As the fifth track, 'Ultimate Artificer' introduces a pivotal point within the story without giving away the beginning or end."

Following on from where previous album, 'Outer Isolation', left off - VEKTOR have written their first full concept album.  'Terminal Redux' tells the story of a test subject and his rise to power within the all-controlling Cygnus Regime.  His ultimate goal is to restore balance within the galaxy by controlling the ebb and flow of life and death.  After regaining his position as a top-ranking General, he incites a coup within Cygnus and takes command of their forces.  However, as time passes, it becomes clear to him that power is just an illusion.

As well as letting their imaginations flow free lyrically, VEKTOR have also embraced some unusual audio elements during the recording of 'Terminal Redux'.  The band enlisted the vocal assistance of a group of Philadelphia soul singers to contribute additional texture to the riff-heavy thrash opus.  The finishing touches are currently being applied to the album following writing and recording sessions at the band's home studio, as well as Panther Pro-Audio in Philadelphia, with additional mixing courtesy of Byron Filson at Villain Studios in Arizona.

KAGOULE CONFIRMED FOR GANG OF FOUR SHOW IN CONJUNCTION WITH WOMEN¹S EQUALITY PARTY

ISLINGTON ASSEMBLY ROOMS - NOVEMBER 6TH 2015

New Album – Urth – Out Now

★★★★ - MOJO: "Superior grunge-schooled rock.”

★★★★ - KERRANG!: “the potential here is terrifying.”

★★★★ - CLASH: "These prodigal post-punks are impossible to pin down: that’s what makes this new record so exciting.”

Gang of Four have invited Kagoule to join them for a show at London’s Islington Assembly Hall in conjunction with the Women’s Equality Party (WE) on November 6 2015. The highly rated Nottingham trio released their debut album in August this year which shot to number #8 in the Official UK Album Charts and was triumphantly received by both fans and the press including rave reviews in MOJO, Clash, NME, Kerrang!, DiS and RockSound plus an honourable inclusion in the Rough Trade Album Club. The Nottingham three-piece have forged a notorious live reputation after recently touring Europe with Sub Pop’s METZ and previously sharing stages with the likes of The Who, Johhny Marr, Sleaford Mods, Drenge and The Wytches. The gig will see Gang of Four headline with Danielle Perry (Absolute, Q) spinning records between live sets. Also playing the event are Manchester's PINS.

Lucy Hatter (Kagoule) says: “It’s unbelievably important to have organisations like WEP active: no matter how far we think we've progressed in terms of equailty we still have so far to go, especially in the music industry. It’s an honour to be able to support a cause I care about by doing something I love.”

Andy Gill (Gang Of Four) says: “Gang of Four has always been interested in describing the world and its power imbalances. The Women’s Equality Party has been formed to tackle the biggest imbalance of all. Women are not equal to men anywhere in the world. This imbalance hurts everyone and everything, including, of course, the music industry which overlooks a lot of female talent and creativity to the detriment of that female talent, the industry and anyone who cares about music.” Speaking about the selection of PINS and Kagoule for the London show, Gill says; “PINS are a great new band- their song ‘Girls Like Us’ is permanently playing on our tour bus. Kagoule are cool and they know it- the new album is highly addictive’.

Gang of Four came into being in 1977 and its first phase, incorporating several changes of lineup, lasted until 1983. Their debut album Entertainment! – voted in Pitchfork’s top ten albums of the 70s, equally beloved by the likes of R.E.M., Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana  and LCD Soundsystem- felt like a blast of ice-cold water, both in form and content. Gill and King made two more albums in the 90s and another in 2011, Content. When King left the project, a reinvigorated Gill seized the opportunity to reimagine Gang of Four from the ground up. As guitarist, composer, producer and lyric writer, he was and remains the band’s driving force.

THE WHITE BUFFALO PREMIERES 'MODERN TIMES' VIDEO ON CLASH IN EUROPE

American underground hero THE WHITE BUFFALO has teamed up with Clash for the European premiere of his music video for "Modern Times".

Led by singer/songwriter Jake Smith, THE WHITE BUFFALO is probably best known for his numerous song placements in the TV series Sons of Anarchy, including the series finale song "Come Join the Murder", which was co-written with series producer Kurt Sutter and nominated for an Emmy for "Outstanding Music and Lyrics".

Taken from his new album, 'Love and the Death of Damnation' - which is due to be released on CD and vinyl on February 12th in Europe with three exclusive bonus tracks - "Modern Times" is a feel-good song which Clash describes as "Starkly honest yet musically ambitious".

THE WHITE BUFFALO's Jake Smith explains:

"With this album, I really wanted to get back to songs... I wanted to get back to writing individual stories, as opposed to an extended narrative.  I wanted each song to make you feel something.  In the past, the songs have almost always been pretty dark.  But this time, I was also able to channel some happier stuff and write a couple of actual feel-good songs.  It's also more varied musically.  I really made an effort to expand my sound, and to get out of my comfort zone as a songwriter."

Check out the video now on Clash in Europe at http://clashmusic.com/videos/premiere-the-white-buffalo-modern-times

'Love and the Death of Damnation' is available to pre-order now on CD and vinyl in Europe, including a very limited number of special signed editions, featuring three exclusive bonus tracks.  Order yours now at http://www.earache.com/twb

The album is already available on iTunes in Europe, minus the bonus tracks, at http://bit.ly/latdod-itunes

THE WHITE BUFFALO: 'LOVE AND THE DEATH OF DAMNATION' INC. 3 BONUS TRACKS OUT FEB. 12TH IN EUROPE

California-based recording artist THE WHITE BUFFALO is due to release his brand new studio album, 'Love and the Death of Damnation', on CD and vinyl in Europe on February 12th, 2016 with three exclusive bonus tracks.

Led by singer/songwriter Jake Smith, THE WHITE BUFFALO is probably best known for his numerous song placements in the TV series Sons of Anarchy, including the series finale song "Come Join the Murder", which was co-written with series producer Kurt Sutter and nominated for an Emmy for "Outstanding Music and Lyrics".

'Love and the Death of Damnation' features a brand new set of authentic and evocative dark blues tracks, including Smith's first ever duet, "I Got You", featuring vocalist Audra Mae, who sang on AVICII's smash hit "Addicted to You" and is the great-great-niece of Judy Garland.

Pre-order 'Love and the Death of Damnation' now on CD and vinyl in Europe, including a limited number of signed editions, at http://www.earache.com/twb

The album is already available on iTunes in Europe, minus the bonus tracks, at http://bit.ly/latdod-itunes

THE WHITE BUFFALO's Jake Smith talks about 'Love and the Death of Damnation':

"With this album, I really wanted to get back to songs... I wanted to get back to writing individual stories, as opposed to an extended narrative.  I wanted each song to make you feel something.  In the past, the songs have almost always been pretty dark.  But this time, I was also able to channel some happier stuff and write a couple of actual feel-good songs.  It's also more varied musically.  I really made an effort to expand my sound, and to get out of my comfort zone as a songwriter."

'Love and the Death of Damnation' track listing:

1. Dark Days
2. Chico
3. Go the Distance
4. Radio With No Sound
5. Home Is in Your Arms
6. I Got You (feat. Audra Mae)
7. Modern Times
8. Last Call to Heaven
9. Where Is Your Savior
10. Rocky
11. Come On Love, Come On In
12. Fantasy [Bonus Track]
13. Darkside of Town [Bonus Track]
14. I Got You (Radio Edit) [Bonus Track]

THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM AND TOUR DATES

British rock 'n' rollers THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT are proud to announce their brand new studio album, 'White Bear'.

Due to be released on January 15th, 2016, the eagerly-anticipated follow-up to their 2013 self-titled debut was recorded with producer Sam Miller in London, Northamptonshire and Monmouth and features 10 stomping new blues-rock anthems.  The band will support 'White Bear' with a UK tour which kicks off the day after the album's release.

THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT comment:

Guitarist, Paul Sayer confides, "White Bear is a real step on for us sonically and artistically.  Playing so many shows together over the last 3 years allowed us to develop a really clear idea of where we wanted to go with our next record.  When it came to making this album we had a bit more time and space to let our creativity go, and I'm incredibly proud of what we achieved."

Whilst on the album title, 'White Bear', singer Phil Campbell notes, "Nick called me with the title which inspired the lyric to the song.  It refers to a study by Daniel Wenger on mindfulness and the controlling of unwanted thoughts, testing a quote from Dostoevsky's 'Winter Notes on Summer Impressions': 'Try to pose for yourself this task: not to think of a polar bear, and you will see that the cursed thing will come to mind every minute.'"

'White Bear' track listing:

1. Three Bulleits
2. Get Yourself Free
3. A Pleasant Peace I Feel
4. Modern Massacre
5. Battle Lines
6. White Bear
7. Oh Lorraine
8. Magnify
9. The Sun and Moon Roll Around Too Soon
10. I Hope I'm Not Losing My Mind

View the album artwork at http://bit.ly/1UJiJt5

'White Bear' is available to pre-order now on CD, signed CD, vinyl and limited edition signed white vinyl, and is also available in a number of t-shirt bundles.  Reserve your copy now at http://www.earache.com/ttm

KAGOULE ANNOUNCE UK TOUR DATES, SHARE XFM LIVE SESSION TRACKS

Tickets on sale Friday at 9am
http://bit.ly/1Q63D05

Watch the introduction to the band ‘Kagoule and The Gang.’
http://youtu.be/Xa-at-4thbU

NME ★★★★ “…never anything short of exhilarating“
MOJO ★★★★ “Superior grunge schooled rock…”
Kerrang! ★★★★ “… the potential here is terrifying”
Rock Sound ★★★★   “… impressively confident and well realized”

http://www.facebook.com/KagouleUK

Kagoule have announced their first full UK headline tour for November/December this year. Nottingham’s notorious live performers will embark on a 18 date tour of the UK giving fans the chance to experience tracks from the critically acclaimed debut album “Urth” which charted at #8 in the Official UK Album Vinyl Charts and was joyously received by both fans and the press including rave reviews in MOJO, Clash, NME, Kerrang!, DiS and RockSound plus an honourable inclusion in the Rough Trade Album Club.

Prior to the UK headline tour, the highly rated three piece will also be heading across the Atlantic for a couple of NYC gigs before taking their unmistakable Alt-Rock sound around mainland Europe including a host of dates supporting Sub Pop Grungers METZ.

To celebrate the tour announcement Kagoule have also offered up two new live tracks from Urth which were recorded for John Kennedy in an XFM Session back in July and are available to stream right now for free on sound cloud.

Frontman and lyricist Cai Burns said:  “We are readying the ship as I speak. Lawrenci The Hands has made ingenious advancements to our vessel which will allow us to travel considerably farther than what we thought possible only a month ago. This morning at sunrise the Sea Dogs spoke with the Sea Gods. They seem to be in a pleasant mood and have given their divine word that no harm will befall us. The children of the waters will not toy with life on this voyage. We will be with you soon. May you continue in good health and spirits.”

The band have consistently impressed live, and developed something of a fearsome live reputation having shared stages with acts including The Who, Johhny Marr, Sleaford Mods, The Wytches, Iceage, METZ, Sebadoh and Drenge plus a performance at Glastonbury Festival.
You can listen to the new XFM Session tracks (Mike and Glue) right now on Sound Cloud: http://soundcloud.com/kagoule/sets/xfm/s-R6Ftk
