earMUSIC, Edelīs international rock label (home of artists such as Bush, Ava, Skunk Anansie, Chickenfoot, Foreigner, Deep Purple, Blue October and many others) is proud to announce what looks to be one of the rock and roll comeback of the year.
After a 14 year break, Scottish rockers GUN will release their great rock and roll comeback on June 8th 2012.
Their debut album, Taking On The World, brought with it many successful singles,appearances, and guest slots with acts such as; The Rolling Stones, Bon Jovi,Simple Minds, Bryan Adams and Def Leppard.
With critically acclaimed albums, singles, many awards and line up changes undertheir belt, GUN decided to call it a day in 1998. Fast forward 10 years to 2008 which saw GUN being awarded with the prestigious Nordoff Robbins Tartan Clef award forScotlands Best Live Band, leading to the band reuniting to an enthusiastic response.
Listen Gun - 'Break The Silence' (Audio)
'Break The Silence' is produced by Dave Eringa, the mastermind behind artists such as The Manic Street Preachers and Ocean Colour Scene. The collaboration resulted in a perfect balance between a modern approach and a vintage energy reminding at times of The Stooges or early Stones. The perfect sonic dress for Gunīs inspired and versatile songwriting. Not just another exercise in nostalgia, but an album that had to be made, made of songs that were too good not to be heard.
Gun fans will certainly agree it was worth the wait: the eleven songs forming the new album reminds of some of the greatest rock albums. No fillers, power, energy, refined and rough at the same time.
Gunīs singer Dante has expressed all his enthusiasm about the new album:
'It's great to be back and we're really pleased tobe working with earMUSIC. We've always felt we had unfinished business as GUN and we couldn't be happier with the tracks we have on our new album! We can't wait for people to hear it and wecan't wait to be out on the road again!'
New and old fans willhave more than a chance to see Gunīs energetic live show.
The band has recently toured with Big Country all over the UK and plans to play live in some of the biggest festivals and together with The Cult all over Europe.
