RIVAL SONS In The Studio Recording Fourth Album

February 11, 2014

Long Beach, California blues rockers RIVAL SONS are in the studio working on their fourth full-length album. The band entered LCS Studios in Nashville, Tennessee at the beginning of January and will spend a full six weeks recording. The the follow-up to 2012's "Head Down" is once again being produced by Dave Cobb, who will have worked on all five RIVAL SONS releases.

Producer Dave Cobb comments: "This record, the boys seem to have a fire in them!

"With [bassist] Dave Beste in tow, we've never had this much time to make a record.

"During the previous albums, which were twenty days each, we had a room full of whiskey bottles at the end; this time, which is six weeks, there should be enough to fill a football field!"

Adds Beste: "After we played Nashville last summer, the guys asked me to join them in the studio to make this new record. And I said, 'Of course!' It's an involved process, at times quite intense, but going well.

"All of us are excited with what we have so far and although there's still a long way to go, spirits are high.

"I'm looking forward to this newest RIVAL SONS effort being released and the band getting back on the road soon."

RIVAL SONS' as-yet-untitled new album is due to be released in spring 2014 on Earache Records in Europe, and via Century Media/Earache in the USA.
