Typhoons auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):

Typhoons is the third studio album by English rock duo Royal Blood, released through Warner Records on 30 April 2021. A predominantly self-produced effort, the band recorded the album throughout 2019 and 2020. The album also marks a notable shift in the band's sound, pairing their usual alternative and hard rock sound with elements of dance-rock and disco. The album was preceded by three singles—"Trouble's Coming", "Typhoons", and "Limbo"—in addition to the promotional single "Boilermaker".

Typhoons received generally favourable reviews from critics, some of whom deemed it the band's best work to date, and was a commercial success, becoming the band's third consecutive UK number one album.[1]

Recording

Royal Blood began recording the album in early 2019. Halfway through the year, they embarked on a tour consisting of intimate shows as well as appearances at festivals such as the Reading and Leeds Festivals. During this tour the band debuted the songs "Boilermaker" and "King" live. They resumed recording later that year.[2] During this time, the duo were recovering from having toured alongside Queens of the Stone Age during the Villains World Tour and promotion of How Did We Get So Dark?, with Kerr affected particularly hard by the constant partying of the tour and thus focused his efforts on becoming sober. As such, this process of sobering up also saw Kerr gain new "clarity and focus on being creative", and his thoughts surrounding this were influential on the songwriting process. The band struggled at first to find their footing with the album, though drummer Ben Thatcher identified the first single "Trouble's Coming" as the first track to click with the band. "Trouble's Coming" saw the foundation for the infusion of the disco influences that were followed up in later tracks.[3]

Recording of the album stretched into early 2020, when it was forced to be halted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in England. Although the songwriting was mostly done, the band wrote additional songs in lockdowns - "Typhoons", "Limbo", "Mad Visions" and "Oblivion",[3] two of which lead singer Mike Kerr felt were "the two best songs on the record".[4] "King" was ultimately cut from the main release of the album as the band didn't feel it worked on the record, as it was too reminiscent of the band's previous sound, alongside another track "Space".[5] "Space" was recorded with Kerr playing guitar as opposed to his usual bass, following on from his guitar-led contributions to Desert Sessions Vols. 11 & 12 in 2019. Both tracks however would be included on the digital deluxe version of the album. Other tunings and instrumental setups for the bass were explored during the production, with elements such as playing bass with guitar strings and different tunings used to help add additional variety to the sound.[6]

Promotion

On 24 September 2020, the band released "Trouble's Coming", the lead single from the album.[4] The video for the single was premiered on 23 October 2020,[7] and in the same month it was included as a part of the soundtracks for the EA Sports video games NHL 21[8] and FIFA 21.[9] The song went on to be a commercial success, reaching No. 8 in Scotland[10] and No. 46 in the United Kingdom.[11] On 21 January 2021, the band revealed the title of the album as Typhoons, as well as announcing its track list and release date of 30 April 2021. Additionally, they released the album's title track as a single on the same day.[12] A music video for the song was released on 28 January.[13] It reached No. 63 in the UK[11] as well as No. 2 in the country's Rock & Metal singles chart.[14] The single was also used by Codemasters and EA Sports in the trailer for the video game F1 2021. On 25 March, the band released "Limbo" as the third single from Typhoons.[15] On 13 April, "Boilermaker" was released with an accompanying music video directed by and starring Liam Lynch.

In a four star review for NME, Typhoons was praised as Royal Blood's "best work to date" and describes the track 'Boilermaker' as the "album's true centrepiece".[25] Gigwise held the album in similar acclaim, stating that Typhoons forges "the sound of modern masters honing their craft to reinvigorate the [rock] genre".[27] The Independent praised the band for reinventing their sound, making comparisons with Daft Punk-esque electronic flairs, and assesses that "the riffs are better, arrangements more textured, harmonies more interesting".[21] In a less positive review, DIY says that the "songs here may be more melodic, more complex even on paper, but in reality there's little there to truly grab hold of".[20]

It was elected by Loudwire as the 43rd best rock/metal album of 2021.[28]

Typhoons ¦ Trouble’s Coming ¦ Back To The Water Below

Royal Blood auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):

Royal Blood ist ein britisches Garage- und Bluesrock-Duo, das 2013 in Worthing gegründet wurde. Im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichen Rockbands besteht Royal Blood nur aus zwei Mitgliedern, dem Bassisten und Sänger Mike Kerr und dem Schlagzeuger Ben Thatcher. Durch die Verwendung mehrerer Effektpedale emuliert Kerr den Klang einer verzerrten E-Gitarre, wodurch das Fehlen eines Gitarristen kompensiert wird.

Geschichte

Royal Blood wurde im Jahr 2013 in Worthing von den Freunden Mike Kerr (Gesang, Bass) und Ben Thatcher (Schlagzeug) gegründet. Der Arctic-Monkeys-Schlagzeuger Matt Helders wurde mit einem T-Shirt, auf dem er die Band unterstützte, während des Glastonbury-Festival-Konzerts im Juli 2013 gesehen, noch bevor Royal Blood ihre erste Single veröffentlicht hatten. Am 11. November 2013 veröffentlichte das Duo seine Debüt-Single Out of the Black zusammen mit der B-Seite Come On Over.

Im November 2013 wurde angekündigt, dass Royal Blood die Arctic Monkeys bei zwei Shows im Finsbury Park im Mai 2014 begleiten werden. Im Dezember 2013 wurden Royal Blood für den BBC Sound of 2014 nominiert.

Royal Blood veröffentlichten am 11. Februar 2014 die Single Little Monster. Die Band veröffentlichte auch eine Vier-Track-EP mit den Liedern Out of the Black, Little Monster, Come On Over und Hole am 11. März 2014 in Nordamerika.[1]

Royal Blood traten im März beim South by Southwest in Austin und in den folgenden Monaten bei Liverpool Sound City,[2] beim Glastonbury Festival und beim Reading Festival auf.[3] Ihr Auftritt am Eröffnungstag des Open Air Gampel im August 2014 bewirkte ebenfalls ein entsprechendes Echo.

Im August 2014 erschien das Debütalbum Royal Blood. Das Lied Out of the Black wurde außerdem als Titelsong für den deutschen Kinofilm Who Am I – Kein System ist sicher verwendet.

Bei den BRIT Awards in London im Februar 2015 erhielt die Band die Auszeichnung als beste britische Band von Jimmy Page überreicht.
