On 2nd March 2009 Red Light Company release their spectacular debut album ‘Fine Fascination’ through Lavolta Records. RLC are multi-national group of nomadic musicians recruited by front man Richard Frenneaux in 2007, with one objective in mind- to make a huge record. ‘Fine Fascination’ is provocative, it explores the profundity and seduction of relationships, addiction and friendship by contrasting dark lyricism with euphoric instrumentals. Produced by Adrian Bushby (U2, Placebo, Foo Fighters) the sound is arena rock - grandiose, relentless and intense. Previous singles from the album include the stellar ‘Scheme Eugene’ (single of the week in The Sun and B-listed at Radio 1 and MTV) and Arts & Crafts (also voted Zane Lowe’s ‘hottest record in the world’ on Radio 1) confirming RLC as one of the few new breakthrough guitar bands to be championed by the station at such an early stage in their career. 2008 saw the band tour relentlessly, supporting The Pigeon Detectives, Kaiser Chiefs, Editors and Glasvegas as well as headlining the BBC Electric proms ‘Hot and New’ night. With an impressive array of profile pieces in 2009’s ‘ones to watch,’ features the hype machine is turning fast in their favour… If there’s one Fine Fascination to have in 2009, it has to be Red Light Company. “The next in line on the Editors and White Lies food chain threaten to eclipse them both.” (NME) ”Red Light Company storm into contention with an Arcade Fire-like blast of intense emotion.” (The Sunday Times) “Britain’s premiere new exponents of elegiac pop-metal.” (The Guardian) Track listing as follows: 1.
