Today The Wildhearts are proud to announce the release of 21st Century Love Songs, their brand new full-length studio album on Graphite Records. Distributed In Australia via Dinner For Wolves.
To celebrate the album release The Wildhearts unveil a brand new video for Splitter.
“Splitter was the first song that I wrote for the new album. The one where I thought “Oh fuck, I can hear us playing that, it’s gonna be filthy, especially live”.
I sent the riff to Ritch straight away, as I always do when I get an idea I’m excited about, and he was into it right off the bat. That’s the thing with new Wildhearts songs, until there’s a big, dirty riff in the bag you can’t move on and write the rest of the album. It all starts with a righteous riff and some shouting. And I hope it always begins that way. If you ain’t got the riffs then you ain’t got shit.” explains Ginger Wildheart.
The Wildhearts are one of the greatest English rock bands of the last 30 years, with 4 UK Top 4 albums, 1 UK Top 10 and 13 Top 40 singles! The band’s last record Renaissance Men was their most successful for a decade and was the band’s second highest charting album, landing at number 11 in the UK Albums Chart.
Lead by their incredibly charismatic frontman Ginger, The Wildhearts effortlessly bounce between hard rock, melodic pop and industrial tinged mayhem with ease.
21st Century Love Songs is the follow up to Renaissance Men, their highest charting album since 1994’s P.H.U.Q, which debuted at number 11
