Info for We're All Gonna Die

Mit „We're All Gonna Die“ veröffentlicht die US-Rockband Dawes ihr fünftes Album auf dem eigenen Label HUB Records. Das Album wurde von Blake Mills (Alabama Shakes) produziert, der bereits für mehrere Grammys nominiert wurde, und enthält Gastauftritte von Jim James (My Morning Jacket), Brittany Howard (Alabama Shakes), Mandy Moore, Will Oldham und Lucius u.a..

Nachdem die Band weltweite Headline Shows und Tourneen mit u.a. Bob Dylan, Mumford & Sons, Conor Oberst und Jackson Browne absolvierte, ist es nun endlich Zeit für das neue Album. Sänger und Gitarrist Taylor Goldsmith sagt über das Werk, dass so gut wie jeder Song auf diesem Album versucht schwierige Situationen im Leben eines Jeden zu erforschen und das Gute darin zu finden oder sich zumindest daran zu erinnern, dass es im Endeffekt auch schlimmer hätte kommen können. Denn, so schlimm es auch ist, am Ende werden wir alle sterben!

Dawes
California-based roots rock band Dawes were formed in the Los Angeles suburb of North Hills by brothers Taylor Goldsmith and Griffin Goldsmith (lead vocals/guitar and drums, respectively), Wylie Gelber (bass), and Alex Casnoff (guitar). They were previously in the band Simon Dawes, but after Blake Mills left the group, they changed the name (and added Casnoff, who was soon replaced by Tay Strathairn). Unlike the more intense indie rock sound they had as Simon Dawes, Dawes were heavily influenced by the gentle, acoustic-based musical trappings and rich vocal harmony of the Laurel Canyon sound (Crosby, Stills & Nash, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell), as well as by the shambling, romanticized Americana of the Band. After connecting with producer Jonathan Wilson, the group began participating in informal jam sessions at Wilson's house with Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst, the Heartbreakers' Benmont Tench, and the Black Crowes' Chris Robinson. The loose feel of these get-togethers informed the group's aptly titled 2009 debut North Hills. The album was recorded in Laurel Canyon live to analog tape, which lent Dawes' recorded sound an authentically vintage vibe.

The band's second album, 2011's Nothing Is Wrong had a similar feel to the debut and peaked at number 23 on the Billboard album charts. That same year, the band had a pair of unique experiences: playing at the Occupy Wall Street protests and appearing as themselves on a prime-time network television show (Parenthood). Stories Don't End, the group's hotly anticipated third studio album, arrived in 2013. Recorded in Nashville at the esteemed Woodland Studios with producer David Rawlings (Gillian Welch, Old Crow Medicine Show), the Hub-issued All Your Favorite Bands arrived in June 2015.

This album contains no booklet.
