UK
heavy rock threesome, NIGHT THIEVES, are poised to stake a claim with
their superb new EP, Spiral, which arrives on Friday 17th September.
Before then, the exciting alt-rockers have released their contagious new
single, Off The Wire. The track has already been playlisted by Planet Rock, and you can watch the video, here - https://youtu.be/lDEzamb7Huw
NIGHT
THIEVES were originally born late 2017 and consist of Jess Moyle
(Vocals), Paul Andrew (Guitar), and Rick Hunter-Burns (Bass). The
Londoners draw in from Royal Blood, Architects, Biffy Clyro, Spiritbox and Incubus,
but the band have certainly crafted their own sound, aided by their
impressive and distinctive use of gigantic drop-tuned riffs and
ultra-hooky vocals lines.
The
trio made their live debut at the end of 2018 and since then, the
rising rockers have amassed a solid following by frequently playing
shows throughout the nation’s capital. The band’s debut EP, Battle Cry, with acclaimed producer Jason Wilson (Dinosaur Pile-up, Reuben, JOANovARC) spawned strong praise from the underground with keen support from Moshville, Divide And Conquer, Down The Media, and many others.
Following the release of Battle Cry, the band were on a roll with many shows scheduled with a slot supporting Marisa and the Moths
among them, before Covid hit the world. However, NIGHT THIEVES
continued to push on and commenced work on their follow-up EP, Spiral,
with producers Paul Visser (Black Orchid Empire, Hawxx) and Kev Yates (Forever Never). The band remark about the EP and how they had to overcome challenges brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic: “Work
on Spiral began the moment lockdown happened; we did this remotely with
producer Paul Visser. We focused on developing the riffs, vocal
melodies, and getting the tracks to really flow. When we finally got
into the studio, we were really pushed by our engineer Kev Yates, and
everything clicked very quickly and to great effect”.
Spiral
is darker and heavier than their debut, but their new record is much
more anthemic and possesses an arsenal of monstrous choruses. Lyrically,
the release focusses on the anxiety and vulnerability felt during the
past twelve months. The EP is undoubtedly the band’s best work to date
and is destined to see them climb to new-found heights.
‘Spiral’ EP track listing: 1) Atoned, 2) Off The Wire, 3) Figure It Out.
