The Wildhearts are proud to announce that their new studio album, ‘Satanic Rites Of The Wildhearts’, will be released in spring 2025.
The creatively brilliant Ginger Wildheart is arguably amongst the UK’s best and most prolific songwriters, and his band, The Wildhearts, have just signed a worldwide deal with Snakefarm / Integral.
"The songs were written during a period of transition, from extremely negative to positive. I realised how much control I have over my mental health, and the songs came from that understanding. There’s everything here – catchy choruses, proper fuck-off riffs, anger, frustration, acceptance and revelation, with plenty of in sane detours. The album starts pessimistic and ends up like ‘Ah, so I CAN turn my life around?’
“Sometimes you have to start from the very bottom, your darkest point. We have more control over our emo tions than we think. We control the outcome by how we respond. Once I started learning that, the songs came pissing out. It’s a hard rock album for people who actually love hard rock!
“We’ll be taking a full evening’s entertainment on tour, kicking off with party-punks Dirt Box Disco, going to rock ‘n’ roll church with Jim Jones and being flayed alive with The Wildhearts.
“The party starts when the doors open, so get a buzz on and get down early.
“Come join the Wildhearts’ community gathering. We guarantee you’ll leave with the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll firmly restored.” – Ginger Wildheart
‘Satanic Rites Of The Wildhearts’ was produced by Jim Pinder (Bring Me The Horizon, Lotus Eater, While She Sleeps, Bullet For My Valentine) and mixed by Jim Pinder and Carl Bown (Trivium, Machine Head, While She Sleeps, Bullet For My Valentine, Bring Me The Horizon, While She Sleeps).
“The first album I A&R’d was ‘Earth vs The Wildhearts’. What a magnificent, game-changing record! What a baptism of fire!! Very quickly, it became clear what a rare talent Ginger was, and is; to my mind, one of the great British songwriters of the past 30 years, and this new record underlines that point.
“The conversation here was simple – let’s rejoin forces, let’s complete the circle, with an album forged in the spirit of ‘Earth vs…’, both in terms of the music and the overall intent, and let’s reference the title and that memorable front cover photo, too.
“Which is what we have; the start of an exciting new chapter in the story of a band who have always been defined by the desire of one man to write songs that soundtrack our lives; songs where – to quote Wildhearts fave ‘Nita Nito’ – rules do not apply.” – Dante Bonutto, Snakefarm
To celebrate this release, The Wildhearts will be playing 8 headline UK shows in March, starting on March 7th at the Leadmill in Sheffield and concluding at the 1865 in Southampton on 16th March.
For three decades, The Wildhearts have remained at the forefront of the UK rock scene, and their incendi ary shows have cemented their reputation and legacy as one of the best band’s their homeland has pro duced, so miss these shows at your peril.
