Band Of Skulls announce new album and tour dates
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 23 January 2019
Band Of Skulls are back with a new album produced by Richard X. Titled ‘Love Is All You Love’, the album’s first single is ‘Cool Your Battles’.
“[The single is] an anti-war cry for our turbulent times”, say the band. “All the energy we spend fighting amongst ourselves can be used to do something positive, something real. So don’t forget to go out, to fall in love and to feel alive”.
Of the album as a whole, the add: “This record is tough and tender with a rebellious spirit. It is a positive record. It looks to what is possible and how a little love and human kindness can help bring about positive change”.
“We drew on personal experiences [and] changes in our situation”, they go on, “and couldn’t help but be affected by what has been going on in the world politically, culturally and environmentally. Attempting to overcome that sometimes powerless feeling by creating and connecting with people and making something new”.
