Gli inglesi THUNDER annunciano la data di release del nuovo album “All The Right Noises”, previsto in uscita il 12 marzo 2021 su BMG. La band pubblica oggi il primo singolo estratto, “Last One Out Turn Off The Lighs”, ascoltalo qui: https://thunderband.lnk.to/ATRNPR
L’album è un ritorno in pompa magna dei THUNDER, con la loro trentennale carriera ricca di successi e da sempre in prima linea nella scena rock britannica, il tutto costruito attorno all’amicizia dello straordinario cantante Danny Bowes e del genio/compositore Luke Morley. “All The Right Noises” è stato registrato durante i mesi antecedenti al primo lockdown causato dal Covid-19 con pubblicazione inizialmente prevista per settembre 2020.
Il comment di Luke Morley:
“Tutti i brani sono stati scritti e registrati pre-Covid. Ma è interessante come molte tracce si impregnino ancor più di significato al giorno d’oggi.”

CD,
2LP,
2CD e
4LP. Questi ultimi due formati conterranno bonus track mentre la versione LP avrà un packaging con pop-up del “Singing Ringing Tree”, la scultura che appare nell’artwork dell’album fotografato da
Jason Joyce.
La scultura è un albero artificiale che sfrutta l’energia del vento per creare un suono corale e discordante ed è situata nella città di Burnley, Lancashire. La stessa è presente nel video di “Last One Out Turn Off The Lights” che sarà presentato settimana prossima.
The volcanic lead single from the album, “Last One Out Turn Off The Lights” could easily be mistaken for world-ending lockdown rage. But, says Luke, “That was directly about Brexit, but you could apply it to everything else.”
The track is indicative of both the ferocity and message of the album as a whole, with subjects tackled including depression, mental health, and diversity. With their knack for imaginative songwriting, “All The Right Noises” also takes aim at Donald Trump in a song written from his perspective, as well as a song Luke describes as “Like the opposite of ‘My Generation’” by The Who in its message.
“All The Right Noises” follows on from 2019’s stripped back and reimagined album, “Please Remain Seated” which continued their consecutive Top 10 UK Album Chart run since their ecstatically received comeback six years ago.
It is another chapter in the band’s incredibly successful history that has seen them create a succession of some of the most highly-regarded rock albums of the past 30 years. The key to their renown: brilliantly conceived top-drawer material including all-time classics like ‘Dirty Love’, and ‘Low Life In High Places’, described by the late great Radio One Rock Show presenter Tommy Vance as “the greatest ever single released by a rock band”.
With their most recent success, Thunder have proven themselves as vital now as when they emerged with their debut album in 1990 ‘Backstreet Symphony’, and their hit follow-up in 1992 ‘Laughing On Judgement Day’, which was only kept off the top spot by Kylie Minogue.
