THE ANSWER: 'Gone Too Long' Video Released

July 9, 2015

"Gone Too Long", the new video from Northern Irish rockers THE ANSWER, can be seen below. The song is taken from the band's new album, "Raise A Little Hell", which was released in North America on March 10 via Napalm.

Commented THE ANSWER lead vocalist Cormac Neeson: "During summer 2014 we hightailed ourselves down to Madrid to record our new album with longtime friend and producer Will Maya. Our time in Spain represents one of the most productive and enjoyable chapters in THE ANSWER's colorful history.

"Our new album, 'Raise A Little Hell', comes from deep down inside. We brought the blues, the swagger and soul back into the studio and emerged from it with an album that encapsulates our unabated love for making the music we make. We're all incredibly proud and thrilled with this record!"

Asked how "Raise A Little Hell" compares to THE ANSWER's past releases, Neeson told GigsAndFestivals.com: "I think every album we put out there is a bit different. It's constantly evolving. We've never really capped our development as a band. We're always continually looking for different inspirations and ways of keeping our music fresh. As a result of which, I don't think any one of our five records sound like another, which is a good thing. It's probably a sum of our parts this one. It kind of felt like making [debut album] 'Rise' again, in that we were writing music for the joy of writing music and no other reason. We were kind of free from all that external pressure that comes from having record deals and a core fan base that you really have to live up to, in terms of their expectations. We were able to block all that background noise out this time around. It's also got a bit of the aggression of 'Everyday Demons', and of 'New Horizon' in there too, and then a bit of the diversity of 'Revival'. I really think it's where all our influences and all our muses meet in the middle."

THE ANSWER consists of Cormac Neeson (vocals),Paul Mahon (guitar),Michael Waters (bass) and James Heatley (drums).
