Band: ROYAL BLOOD
Who: The English blues-rock
fanatics.
Album: DEAD COMPANY
Their 5th.
Press info: “Self-produced, Mike Kerr and Ben Thatcher headed into the studio in 2025
with no deadline and no distractions. The result is raw, direct and stripped back to the essentials, with all the force and immediacy of Royal Blood at full tilt. Written with the
stage in mind, Dead Company is built to hit hard live.”
Album artwork
NME: “The duo floor the accelerator and embark on another collision course of energised and uncompromising riff-rock. Despite threatening to disrupt the evolutionary flow that ‘Typhoons’ instigated, in actuality, ‘Dead Company’ carries the hallmarks of another ground zero moment for Royal Blood.”
TUTV: Royal Blood by numbers. Fired-up riff whoppers in every corner sounding like the fired-up riff whoppers on previous albums. Their blues rock territory isn’t one where risks are taken, nor changes are made. As the cliché goes, a treat for fans only. Next, please.
