JETTBLACK get ready to
release brand new album ‘Disguises’ in April.
Formed
in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire in 2007, and drawing inspiration from an era
when rock bands had ‘entertaining an audience’ high on their list of things to
do, JETTBLACK unleash incredibly well-crafted and hook laden, powerful
melodic rock and roll.
With
two albums under their belts ‘Get Your Hands Dirty’ (2010),
and ‘Raining Rock’, (2012) plus mini album Black Gold (2013), this
four-strong outfit have continued to hone and polish their skills delivering
stunning material that has built them a solid and growing fan base as well as a
list of high profile admirers and collaborators. Ian Paice (Deep Purple),
Udo Dirkschneider (Accept) and Damon Johnson (Thin Lizzy, Alice
Cooper) have all featured on JETTBLACK releases, sold on the quality
and delivery of their songs.
None
of JETTBLACK’S songs are conceived to stand in the corner, away from the
spotlight; these are BIG, finely-crafted compositions with a built-in swagger,
fuelled by the self-belief, passion and next level
musicianship.
On the live circuit JETTBLACK have
been strutting their stuff around the UK and Europe with sold out shows becoming
more and more of a common occurrence. Blowing bands off of the stage is becoming
second nature for them, as the live show has hit new heights and an unstoppable
energy. Notably they’ve shared the stage with peers such
as Papa Roach and appeared at a number of top festivals
(Download, T In The Park, Hard Rock
Hell, Sonisphere).
The band have now finished writing their
third full length album, due for release in April on Cherry Red Records.
Unveiling their first single ‘Explode’ vocalist/guitarist Will Stapleton
said: “JETTBLACK has always done
things their own way. There has never been a conscious effort to write in a
certain style or pander to a certain trend or fashion. We’ve always had this
attitude as we feel it is the only way to write something that will stand the
test of time. This new album 'Disguises' is a full on reflection of that.
It’s about never hiding behind something you aren’t. It may feel a little more
serious and mature, but I think sometimes people forget we’ve been on a musical
journey for 17 years as musicians, so we’re always evolving. Don’t worry though,
it’s still full of huge choruses, massive riffs and and in your face production
and we’re all really proud of the evolution!”
Full-on, boldly constructed and walking a
fine and timeless line between the contemporary and the
classic, JETTBLACK make absolutely no concession
to the half-hearted or, well, the half-anything. This is glorious rock
music – unashamedly loud ‘n’ proud, and delivered with power, passion, craft,
and the secure knowledge that biggest can very often be best….
