Once again recorded with two-times Grammy winner Dave Cobb, 'Hollow Bones' follows the release of RIVAL SONS' chart-hitting 2014 album, 'Great Western Valkyrie'. Since then, the band have appeared on 'Later... with Jools Holland' in the UK and 'The Late Show with David Letterman' in the USA, performed at the iconic Glastonbury and Isle of Wight festivals and sold out countless headlining shows.
Now supporting the legendary BLACK SABBATH on "The End" world tour, and with the upcoming release of yet another jaw-dropping record, 2016 looks set to be RIVAL SONS' best year yet.
In the words of frontman Jay Buchanan, "Each record we've made has been part of a distillation toward revealing the band's essence. This record, finally is the release of the unapologetic, wild beast that has long lived within the ribs of Rival Sons howling to be freed."

RIVAL SONS ANNOUNCE ALBUM TITLE & REVEAL ALBUM ART
"...a soulfulness and strut which puts them into quite a different league" - Uncut
"...fuzzy, hulking riffs and swinging psychedelic grooves" - Mojo
"Sun-kissed psychedelia and irresistible hooks" - The Guardian
"...sheer unadulterated greatness" - Classic Rock
"Rival Sons prove it's still possible not to play by corporate rules" - Independent On Sunday
Following the release of their album 'Great Western Valkyrie' in 2014, a year which saw the band appear on Later With Jools Holland in the UK, Letterman in the US, appear at the Glastonbury and Isle of Wight festivals, plus consistently sell out their worldwide headline tours, RIVAL SONS are pleased to announce that their fifth album will be available later this year entitled 'Hollow Bones'. Vocalist Jay Buchanan said, "Each record we've made has been part of a distillation toward revealing the band's essence. This record, finally is the release of the unapologetic, wild beast that has long lived within the ribs of Rival Sons howling to be freed." Recorded in Nashville's LCS studios, 'Hollow Bones' saw recent two-times Grammy winner Dave Cobb on producer duties yet again, who commented, "Rival Sons are the best rock 'n' roll band on the planet!"
Always a band who feel artwork is as much a part of the album experience as the music, their first outing was a collaboration with legendary artist Storm Thorgerson, known for many iconic album covers from the likes of PINK FLOYD and LED ZEPPELIN. This time they have teamed up with artist Martin Wittfooth, whose intensely allegorical paintings all suggest the future of the human condition - without showing a single person - on a piece called "Rainsong". Guitarist Scott Holiday commented, "I discovered Martin Wittfooth about halfway through making 'Hollow Bones'. I was immediately drawn into his work. I loved his imagery with animals and felt it was calm and unnerving all at the same time. I also loved the touch of whimsy and beautiful psychedelic overtones he used. First time I saw his work I immediately felt it was right for this album. I won't try to overly interpret the album cover or explain in detail why I believe it works perfectly with the album... but I can safely say I think this just might be my favorite cover of ours yet."

With their last two albums charting in the Top 20 around the world ('Great Western Valkyrie' charted at 14 in the UK), a rabid fan base and incendiary live shows, 2016 is set to be their best year yet. RIVAL SONS are currently the sole support on the current BLACK SABBATH The End Tour; they are also playing Download Festival's main stage on Saturday 11th June.

VEKTOR RELEASE NEW TRACK 'CHARGING THE VOID' ON NPR
Highly complex progressive sci-fi themed metallers VEKTOR have teamed up with NPR for the release of a brand new track, "Charging the Void".
The track is taken from the band's upcoming new album, 'Terminal Redux', which is due to be released on May 6th worldwide. 'Terminal Redux' is the band's third full-length release and first ever concept album, further exploring the themes that first appeared in the title track from their previous album, 2011's 'Outer Isolation'.
Listen to "Charging the Void" now on NPR at http://n.pr/1Ly5pt4
VEKTOR vocalist/guitarist David DiSanto comments:
"'Charging the Void' is the first track of the album and sets the scene for the story that follows. It begins with the lone astronaut from 'Outer Isolation' who is actually an isolation test subject. He overrides the auto-pilot and is compelled to go forth on his own and search for his purpose. Years in isolation have twisted his mind and he teeters between insanity and vengeance. His travels bring him to the now-exploded star, Alshain. Within the stellar nebula he finds a life-giving molecule that revitalizes him and extends his life. With an entire haul of the new found molecule, he believes to have found his purpose. He has an epiphany about life and death and decides to bring his life-giving molecule and his new way of understanding to the Cygnus Regime.
"There are many hidden meanings in the song that relate to balance, power, and life and death, so keep an ear out!"
As well as letting their imaginations flow free lyrically, VEKTOR have also embraced some unusual audio elements during the recording of 'Terminal Redux', going as far as to enlist the vocal assistance of a group of Philadelphia soul singers to contribute additional texture to the riff-heavy opus. Listen out for the introduction of Naeemah Z. Maddox and RoseMary Fiki towards the end of "Charging the Void".
'Terminal Redux' is available to pre-order now on CD and vinyl, including a number of limited signed editions. Reserve your copy now in Europe at http://webstore.earache.com/vektor or in North America at http://uswebstore.earache.com/vektor
The album is also available to pre-order now on iTunes at http://bit.ly/terminalredux-itunes
'Terminal Redux' was recorded between the band's home studio and Panther Pro-Audio in Philadelphia, with additional mixing courtesy of Byron Filson at Villain Studios in Arizona.
