THE LORANES - 2nd - CD

It seems THE LORANES only exist in extremes. All or nothing. Top or flop. Leave the car at full throttle or the empty car and get out. When the band suddenly appeared on the scene with their debut «Trust» in 2015, the trio had moved into their rehearsal room just a few weeks before. And only shortly after bassist Mammut left KADAVAR after two successful albums, THE LORANES already had their debut in the shops, received great reviews and then toured Europe for weeks.

After a year in the upper rpm range, however, it became surprisingly quiet, which had many private reasons and raised doubts as to when and if another album could be expected at all. Now, without much notice, the ignition keys are in the lock again and the tank is full to the brim. "2nd" was written, recorded and produced in a very short time. And again shortly after the album release they will be sitting in the tour bus and going full throttle...

“2nd” is even more versatile than the debut. A fat production, lots of dynamics and variety, but the trio still embodies the dark, unpolished rock diamond. It tugs and fuzzes, and the gruff sound contrasts with the many catchy melodies. Stylistically between Britpop, Shoegaze, 60s Pop and US Garage Rock. What the ECLIPSED magazine wrote so aptly about the debut is still valid: THE LORANES "they dug through the primordial soup of Rock'n'Roll and whirled up some deep black floating particles". Here the right albums are on the shelf, the references are clear but varied and everything is covered with a fine, dark patina and it smells of smoke, beer and leather... Here we go, all or nothing.
