Californian blues-rockers RIVAL SONS highly anticipated new album, "Head Down", is scheduled for release on September 17. The album was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee with Grammy-nominated producer Dave Cobb (JAMIE JOHNSON, SHOOTER JENNINGS) and Grammy-wining engineer Vance Powell (JACK WHITE, THE WHITE STRIPES, KINGS OF LEON). The artwork was created by Jason Holley (JOSH RITTER, RAY LAMONTAGNE).

Following on from support slots to such diverse and legendary bands as Judas Priest, Guns N Roses, Evanescence and Black Stone Cherry, Rival Sons have returned with a stunning new album, with a fresh new sound, perhaps best described by the band themselves:

RIVAL SONS frontman Jay Buchanan: "We took a lyric from one of the songs that exemplified the process of making the record. 'Head down' comes from the term 'Keep your head down and keep on swinging.' I thought it was fitting and it works perfectly with the album cover."

Guitarist Scott Holiday: "Songs were once again written and recorded on the spot, allowing the listener to really peer in and catch a snapshot of the moment, and our immediate instincts. Most songs were captured in a few takes, not to mention plenty of first-takers. Pretty off the cuff and unadulterated. We have never had a wish to be predictable or sedentary with our music, and this record explores and supports that ethos pretty well. In other words, this record is not 'Pressure & Time', but delves into a bunch of other musical ideas and sounds. Much more of a 'long-form' record as a whole. Fist-pumpers, ass-shakers, foot-stompers, air guitaring/bassing/drummers, tear-jerkers, heart-string-pullers, and a few straight-up freakouts."


The album is available directly from the Earache Webstores as a standard jewel case CD, a digisleeve, or a deluxe gatefold audiophile double vinyl, complete with a download card for the full album!
