Frontiers
Music Srl are delighted to announce the release of “Ride To Nowhere”, the third
studio album by Inglorious on January 25th 2019. The debut single
from the album, “Where Are You Now?” is released on the 18th October
2018.
In
amongst their touring commitments, Inglorious spent 2018 writing and recording
their third studio album, “Ride To Nowhere”. A much darker, more reflective
album than their previous releases, the new songs further hone the Inglorious
sound – the pulsating rhythms, driving guitars and infectious vocal
melodies.
“This
album is different in many ways. The songs came about very quickly. As
with all our songs we start with a riff, and this time having new guitarist Drew
added a new and heavier feel to a couple of songs. We wrote the basics mostly
together all in one room on acoustic guitars and then I went away and crafted
the stories I wanted to tell. For me this album is very personal. I am for the
first time writing about a lot of my feelings, relationships and losses...” –
Nathan James
“On
this album I feel that the songs are a true reflection of what we’ve been
through over the past few years - both as a band and as individuals. You’ve got
the highs, the lows and lessons learned along the way. The making of this album
was at a time when we all had our own personal situations and changes to deal
with. I feel that this definitely comes through on the recordings and
particularly songs like ‘Tomorrow’, ‘Where Are You Now?’ and ‘Glory Days”. –
Colin Parkinson
The
recording of “Ride to Nowhere” involves for the first time new guitarist Drew
Lowe, who says “The album is the next step for the band in maturity. Being
that it's my first, I wasn't sure what to expect, but as soon as we started we
knew what type of record was coming. Hopefully the fans will love it as they
follow us on the musical journey.”
From
the body blow riffs of the first single “Where Are You Now?”, to the beautiful
melodies and bluesy overtones of “I Don’t Know You,” from the assault of “Freak
Show” to the acoustic ballad “Glory Days”, “Ride to Nowhere” is an absolute gem
of an album, showing not only all the influences from iconic rock albums of the
70’s, but also offering the band’s own sound and interpretation. As with
Inglorious “II”, the album was mixed by the legendary Kevin Shirley (Led
Zeppelin, Aerosmith).
“There’s
a lot of variety on this album, more so than the previous ones and that I really
like. Sonically I think it sounds more fresh, contemporary in a sense and that
goes for a bunch of songs on the album as well. Just the singles alone are
different than how we’ve sounded in the past, but still have the Inglorious feel
and vibe! Lastly I also think that musically it’s better than the previous
albums, everyone plays very tasteful, soulful and collectively I feel that it’s
perfect!” – Andreas Eriksson
“We’re
all really happy with the way the new record sounds and look forward to seeing
how the fans receive it. I personally can’t wait to play the new material live
on the road!”- Phil Beaver
