There’s new music from Royal Blood up on YouTube, though you might already know it from the Vinyl television series soundtrack.
‘Where Are You Now?’ is something to cling to nevertheless as Mike Kerr and Ben Thatcher remain elusive about their follow-up to the huge breakthrough of 2014’s self-titled debut album, though Kerr did talk with NME last October about the basic approach the duo have taken to writing new material on their tour bus.
“I built a studio in the back of our bus,” he said. “It’s very hard to write when everything keeps falling over because the driver’s taken a massive corner. It was our writing den – we’d have Clint Eastwood movies playing with the volume down.”
During the interview, Kerr also appeared to suggest the second album won’t deviate too far form the winning formula of their debut, saying they ‘don’t need to reinvent the wheel’.
This track certainly pays testament to such principles.
