News : Royal Blood release their incredible self titled debut album


Yesterday, British rock duo Royal Blood released their incredible self-titled debut album 'Royal Blood'.

 

Last year and the start of this year, Royal Blood were one of my favorite upcoming bands.

Royal Blood album coverTheir set last July at Glastonbury was astonishing and the set showcased their talent. In spring the duo played South by Southwest in Texas. At Reading this year their crowd was huge and they blew everyone away, playing singles from their new album including their two UK rock chart no. 1 singles 'Out of the Black' and 'Little Monster'.


Royal Blood are up there with the huge rock bands like You Me At Six, showing you don't need a four piece band to sound good.

I think this is an incredible album but my favourite song sill has to be 'Little Monster' because this is the song that got me hooked on this band from the start.

This being the bands debut album makes this album even more astounding for me because this is just the start.

If you have ever read any of my other posts you'll quickly learn that one of my favourite bands over the last two year is Catfish and the Bottlemen.

Yesterday, Vevo posted the below video where they had the chance to sit and talk to the bands lead signer, Van Mccann - which I am extremely jealous of.

Van discusses the bands unique formation, his first music memory and what the rest of the year looks like for the band.

This Wild Life are two friends from Long Beach, California who met during work. The band consists of two guitars and two guys, a pretty simple ratio. What isn't as easy to understand is their style of music. Its all acoustic.
