Regulus – New Album “QUADRALITH” On 17th March 2017 Via Off Yer Rocka

REGULUS BRING THE GROOVE WITH NEW ALBUM, “QUADRALITH”ON 17TH MARCH 2017
BLUESY STONER RIFF ALBUM TO COINCIDE WITH FIRST LEG OF UK TOUR
SINGLE “DOMINION” DIGITALLY RELEASED 10 FEB. 2017

In today’s ever-changing, genre-shifting world of rock and metal, REGULUS are one of those bands with a no holds barred approach to their creative ethos which kind of makes it hard to pigeon-hole them. Drawing influence from everywhere and nowhere, they refuse to be defined by anyone’s standards but their own.

Guitarist/backing vocalist Thomas “Oz” Osborne had this to say: “Our greatest strength as a band since day one has always been our work-ethic and relentless desire to push forward both creatively and practically. Inevitably this brings with it a measure of sacrifice and pressure which can lead to turbulence. “Quadralith” was written and recorded during the most difficult and highest pressure, yet most progressive and forward-looking phase of our existence as Regulus to date, which has led to it being not only our deepest and most honest body of work so far, but also the highest quality both musically and technically.”

Through adversity, creativity blooms… As a unit, Regulus is stronger than ever before and truly greater than the sum of its parts; this album reflects that.

Oz continues by saying: “The Quadralith is a metaphor for ourselves, four distinct entities united in one purpose. Where our last album was a collection of songs written over the initial years that we experimented with our sound, “Quadralith” is the product of a band who finally knows exactly who they are and what they want to express”.
Lead vocalist/guitarist Luke Jennings adds: “I am prouder of my vocals and guitar work on “Quadralith” than I have been on any previous release we’ve done.”

The songs on the album are some of the catchiest, heaviest and most riff-fuelled songs from the band to date. The album was recorded at Playing Aloud Studios in Lincoln and produced by bassist Martyn Lucas-Bewick and guitarist Thomas “Oz” Osborne. When asked what he thought of the completed work, drummer Joe Milburn said: “Quadralith is the strongest possible expression of our progress as a band and as individuals. Even though we have undergone fundamental changes during this album cycle, we have not lost sight of the band we started out as. Expect our signature sound, but with texture and depth that can be only be gained by abrasion, experience and strife!” And the last word on the matter comes from bassist Martyn Lucas-Bewick, who summed it up best by saying: “We’ve created a monster, and can’t wait for it to cave in peoples’ ear canals!”

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!
