Description:

This is the northeast calling, with songs of stillness, reflection, renewal, defiance, hope, classic melodies and, at certain perfectly judged moments, furniture-shifting riffs. With a powerful album shaped by pandemic-era loss (of momentum, and of a band member), and by the wins brought by what singer/songwriter/guitarist Adam Hope describes as a weight lifted off my shoulders. With a fresh, front-footed, fired-up approach that owes everything to a band returning to their roots in Wallsend and Newcastle and, for the first time, making their music entirely on their own independent terms: self-produced and self-confident.The Big Sad: an album born from the ashes of dark times, but representing a beacon of light for the future. An album of honesty and purity, one that our current fanbase sonically may not be expecting. The sound of a band that got tired of slamming on the fuzz pedal to tick the rock box and dares to try something new, dares to shock, dares to be great. Tracklisting: 1. Lost In The Moment2.
