UK DATES SUPPORTING BOY JUMPS SHIP

Video to single ‘Boss Lady’

LTNT released their debut album ‘RANK’ via Maybe Records  (Karma To Burn, Toadies, Leogun) on March 11th 2016.

‘RANK’ is full of raw energy, punk rock attitude and ethereal melodies. From the chaotic crunching guitars of lead single ‘Boss Lady’ to the pulsating riffs of ‘Oh Drag’, the heartfelt emotion of ‘ In The Back of Your Mind’ to the Bond-theme qualities of ‘Hold In Your Heart’. The album takes influence from both ends of the rock spectrum and tilts its hat to both heavy and melodic structures.

The album was produced by vocalist Liam Lever and Sean Genockey (Jamie Lenman) at Rockfield Studios in February 2015.

‘RANK’ will also come in the format of a magazine with vocalist Liam Lever saying “Making an album of just music is quite claustrophobic for us. There’s a lot of other things we want to get out there. We thought a magazine covered most bases so we set one up. There’ll be one every time we have any kind of musical release.”

The band’s debut EP, ‘DAO’, was praised by fans and industry alike. Following the buzz surrounding the record, LTNT were invited to tour with Brant Bjork, Chevelle and Seether. The attention also secured the band a spot at Reading and Leeds Festival two years in a row where the BBC named their set ‘the best of Festival Republic stage.’ LTNT have also played Handmade Festival, The Great Escape and Camden Rocks, Download Festival and Y-Not Festival alongside Snoop Dog, Primal Scream and Johnny Marr.

Last year saw the departure of long standing drummer Neil

About Louise Swift

I first went to a gig in 1981, Gillan at Leeds University. I've been a regular gig goer ever since. I haven't kept count of how many gigs I've been to over the intervening years, but it's a lot! My favourite bands are AC/DC then, in no particular order, Anti-Nowhere League, Slaughter and the Dogs, Towers of London and Dirt Box Disco. I tend to like Glam/Punk and rude offensive lyrics, not sure what that says about me but as Animal would say 'So What!' The question was recently put to me - did I write for any online publications? My reply - No, but I'd like to! Planetmosh was suggested and I found myself offering to review Aces High Festival. Easy peasy I thought! Well not quite, if a jobs worth doing it's worth doing well! I had sixteen bands to research. I found I actually enjoyed that and it kept me too busy to be making lunatic comments on Facebook! ;) Then I felt a bit inadequately qualified. I mean, who am I to comment on others, when my musical expertise extends to being able to play a mean Greensleeves on the recorder and a passable Annie's song on the flute! Haven't picked up either instrument for years! What I do have, however, is over 30 years of experience as a gig goer, so I can comment on what I like and what I don't! It's only my opinion and, if I don't like a band it doesn't mean they are bad, just not to my own liking. I admire anyone who has the guts to get up on that stage and have a go!
