Details
Since their formation in 2009, There Will Be Blood have released 3 albums and 2 EPs of western-tinged boogie, building on a heritage of American blues and rock n’ roll. Their new album Beyond is out October 18th, 2019 on Blues For The Red Sun Records. Beyond is the fourth studio album by the Italian “raw blues” rock band There Will Be Blood. Their own self-invented genre is an electric mix of Hill Country Blues, rock n’ roll and funk which is brought to life with storytelling of a cinematic scope. On their previous records, the band wove a story of a nameless traveler on a road studded with monsters, miracles and catastrophes. Their new record breaks with the past and tells a new supernatural tale of a boy grieving for his mother and overcoming mortal existence: the “beyond”. Beyond is There Will Be Blood’s first record recorded with their new five-piece lineup, an expansion which has notably contributed to the record’s broader reach of styles and dynamics. The album’s eleven tracks move from wild boogie rock and electric blues to dancable funk and soulful gospel carried by the hypnotic percussion of African litanies. Beyond is a rock n’ roll soundtrack to a film set in the dusty wild west, with the film solely showing on the back of your eyelids. For those wanting a more literary experience, an included poster tells the story with which the listener can follow along. Available on white vinyl.
