Written favorieten Rival Sons zijn in de studio om hun vierde album op te nemen. Het is de opvolger van het zeer succesvolle album Head Down uit 2012.

De band ging begin januari de LCS Studios in Nashville in en heeft in totaal 6 weken om het nieuwe album op te nemen. Het album wordt wederom geproduceerd door Dave Cobb, de man die ook de voorgaande albums produceerde. Cobb is super enthousiast over de opnamen: “This record the boys seem to have a fire in them! With Dave Beste in tow, we’ve never had this much time to make a record. During the previous albums, which were twenty days each, we had a room full of whiskey bottles at the end; this time, which is six weeks, there should be enough to fill a football field!”

Nieuwe bassist Dave Beste sluit zich daar volledig bij aan: “After we played Nashville last summer, the guys asked me to join them in the studio to make this new record. And I said, ‘Of course!’. It’s an involved process, at times quite intense, but going well – all of us are excited with what we have so far and although there’s still a long way to go, spirits are high. I’m looking forward to this newest Rival Sons effort being released and the band getting back on the road soon.”

Nog veel leuker is de rondleiding die gitarist Scott Holiday ons geeft door de studio:

Het, tot nu toe nog ongetitelde, nieuwe album zal al in het voorjaar wereldwijd verschijnen via Earache Records.
