Fri 7th Aug NINE BLACK ALPS ANNOUNCED AT THE ROCKHOUSE
Nine Black Alps are set to release third studio album ‘Locked Out From The Inside’ on October 5th. The Manchester-based four-piece are also pleased to announce that anyone buying a ticket for their upcoming UK tour will also receive a special bonus - a free copy of the digital album.
A no-nonsense sonic assault with huge crunching riffs and powerful lyrics, ‘Locked Out From The Inside’ sees the four-piece unleash the punk-rock roar they’ve always hinted at. Opening with ‘Vampire In The Sun’, a brooding rock seethe, it’s a record of fuzz bass throbs and vicious, ‘In Utero’-esque riffarama. ‘Salt Water’ pulsates with high tempo guitars and an anarchic, anthemic chorus, ‘Every Photograph Steals Your Soul’ is a hook-laden distorto-rock stomp and the impeccably elegant ‘Bay Of Angels’ suggests there’s a Bond theme in them yet. Produced by Dave Eringa (Manic Street Preachers), the full physical album will be released on October 5th, including artwork designed by the band.
Since forming in 2003, Nine Black Alps have developed a reputation as one of the country’s loudest and melodic rock bands. Their loud and aggressive yet melodic music that echoes the sounds of American alternative rock bands such as Nirvana, Pixies and Dinosaur Jr and ‘Locked Out From The Inside’ sees them capture the riotous thrill of their live shows on record. The band are offering a unique opportunity to fans buying a ticket of any of the tour dates below – every tour ticket purchased will come with a free digital copy of the album. The album will be sent electronically following ticket purchase – a unique opportunity for fans to hear the full album well ahead of the release date. The first release from the album was a new track called 'Buy Nothing', which within hours of its release on NME.com was downloaded more than any other track the NME have ever featured.
Following this success, Nine Black Alps are currently on tour in the UK to promote the new single and the forthcoming new album.
