Blood Red Shoes "Get Tragic" CD

★Japanese edition bonus tracks included

The UK's strongest male-female alternative duo, Blood Red Shoes, is back after five years! After a breakup and rebirth, they have reached new heights with this satisfying work!

The 5th album, which is an explosion of the evolved BRS sound with the bold introduction of synths, was produced by master Rick Launey (PIL, Arcade Fire, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, etc.) and recorded in LA! Guest appearances by The Wytches, Ed Harcourt, and Clarence Clarity!

The strongest alternative rock duo from Brighton, England, consisting of Laura Mary Carter (vocals, guitar) and Steven Ansell (vocals, drums), is finally back! This album, released after a five-year hiatus from their fourth album "Blood Red Shoes" in 2014, is the best result the duo has achieved after a long period of suffering and tragedy. After the release of their previous album, the two were exhausted by the extremely busy days that had continued uninterrupted since their debut, and their relationship became so strained that they were on the verge of breaking up... After a long period of recharging, the band made a brilliant comeback and began working on a new album, but this time Laura was in a motorcycle accident and was unable to play the guitar, so they were forced to compose on a synth for a while. However, this ended up breathing new life into the band, and the two were enlightened. With the help of LA master Nick Launay, they forged ahead with a new sound! After all these twists and turns, this album is a combination of the band's signature BRS style of sharp distorted guitars and powerful drums combined with spatial synth sounds to create a heavy yet catchy sound. This masterpiece will bring fresh surprises to existing fans and will also appeal to new listeners!
