简介
Lovedrug is a rock and roll band from Alliance, Ohio. Their third album, The Sucker Punch Show, was released October 28, 2008.
Recorded with Michael Beinhorn (Soundgarden, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Mew), Lovedrug’s The Sucker Punch Show is every bit the sonic leap forward one would hope for from these arena-leaning indie rockers. Recorded at the $5.5M Red Bull Studios in Santa Monica, Sucker Punch delivers in spades on the big-budget hints inherent in much of the band’s previous work, providing gigantic tones that span from new heavy rockers to atmospheric art for which the band is known. This is the next generation of Lovedrug; a neo-melodic-grunge set with twice the mood and ten times the menace.
“Just hanging around, just waiting to die, We’re all suckers in the same damn sucker punch show”
As the above line from lead single “Everyone Needs A Halo” suggests, Michael Shepard & Co. have a definitive outlook on this the third Lovedrug effort. “Everyone has a role in the sucker punch show, this is just my accounting of it,” states Shepard. “For me, my road, I’m just caring less and less about self screening and caring more and more about letting people know exactly how I feel.” Thus opening track “Let It All Out” is both warning and manifesto – an admonition of uninhibited statements to follow. “Sucker Punch is about letting go of inhibitions and not allowing your brain to filter the emotions that come naturally,” says bassist Thomas Bragg.
“Sometimes you gotta let it all out”
