The Amazons announce new album 'Future Dust'

After returning earlier this year to deliver their brilliant comeback single 'Mother', The Amazons have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving next month.

The new full-length 'Future Dust' follows on from their stunning 2017 self-titled debut album, is being previewed by the newly unveiled track 'Doubt It', and is set to arrive on the 24th May via Fiction Records.

Speaking about their return, frontman Matthew Thomson said, “We were searching for a heavier sound and we found it by delving back through the blues. From Led Zeppelin, we discovered Howlin’ Wolf and immersed ourselves in his back catalogue. I read Hellfire, the Jerry Lee Lewis biography, and fell in love with the Biblical language that was used to describe his ‘devil music’.

“As much as the songs, it was the stories and characters that we loved. Playing boogie-woogie piano in murky clubs sounds pretty tame now, but back then, it was raw and dangerous. We wanted to capture that with a dirtier, grittier, sexier sound.”
