Fuzzy blues rockers The Floors have a brand new gem that’ll wake you up this Week, titled ‘Join The Fight’ it comes ahead of a tidy little east coast tour that’s taking place from the 19th of November to the 22nd of November.
The Perth based trio recorded this killer new single at Rada Studios with engineer Dan Carroll (Kill Devil Hills, Split Seconds), and this will be unleashed as the lead single from The Floors sophomore album to be released in April 2016. Filmed at Black Bikes Perth Western Australia, featuring Shannon Fox, David Rose, Dominique Pratt and Michael Hay.
The Floors are:
Luke Dux
Ryan Dux
Ashley Doodkorte
It’s the inevitable question any artist will ask themselves at some point in their career “Is what I’m doing worth it, or should I give up, step in line and pay rent on time? Is life about what’s good for the soul or good for the wallet?”
Perth’s fuzzed-out punk blues outfit The Floors’ new track Join The Fight is an expression of this very topic. With an angular guitar riff featuring throughout, sledge hammer drums, driving bass and Luke Dux’s gruff vocals; this track comes together as a beautiful, messy anecdote.
“We had been jamming a bunch of new songs and is sounded like we had a record so we booked a couple of days at Rada studios with Dan (Carroll). We recorded it live, loud as fuck straight onto an 8 track tape machine. No computers.” says – Luke Dux
It’s this analogue recording combined with experimental use of effects and technique that give The Floors their unique sound and this track does not stray from the raw, fuzzed out tones we’ve come to expect from The Floors. If anything the track boasts a huge progression in writing which has come from the band taking some serious time off to focus on writing for much of 2015.
Unlike most releases from The Floors, the batch of songs from the forthcoming album have not yet been road tested at shows or on tour. This is as fresh as it gets. Join The Fight sounds like s stampede. It’s dark, it’s loose and it’ll make you move.
