Following on from the success of their debut album ‘Get It’,
released last year on Universal Music, the lions have opted for a stripped back
approach on their new album, building themselves a studio in the attic of super
secretive lion’s den HQ.
The new album ‘Get Evolved’ was produced by the bands main
songwriter and guitarist JJ Lyons then mixed and mastered by Gary Lloyd who
also worked on ‘Get It’. The album features 13 tracks of sleazy, wild, untameable
rock’n’roll that will demand your full attention.
It’s fair to say the lions haven’t had the easiest of years
with the departure of guitarist Jakk Vanity and the comings and goings of different
drummers. However nobody said it was gonna be easy, and so after a lot of hard
work, time and effort (and I dare say a few catnip cigarettes were involved too)
the lions are ready to pounce back onto the music scenes jugular with their
claws out and sharpened! The new single ‘(Not) What You Need’ will be on sale October 22nd 2012, and will be backed double A-side style with ‘S.O.S’, both songs will feature on their new album ‘Get Evolved’ which will be released next month. If you can’t wait until then why not head over to the Lionsex facebook page where you can hear the new single and get your paws on a FREE download of their cover of Guns N’ Roses classic ‘Shadow of Your Love’.
It’s great to hear these lions roar again, and after hearing the new single, I for one can’t wait to hear the rest of the album and see how the lions have developed. It’s enough to make a kitty purrrr.
