1 When I spoke to Inglorious singer Nathan James in Belfast last July the band were just about to head into the studio to start work on their second album. Six months later, Frontiers Music Srl have announced the release of the second Inglorious album, Inglorious II, on May 12, 2017! The band have also announced their new guitar player, Drew Lowe.

2 Frontiers Press release via Duff Press September 2016 saw Inglorious base themselves in Liverpool to work on the follow up to their 2016 eponymous debut album. Produced by the band and mixed by the legendary Kevin Shirley (Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith), this new album is set to further enhance the standing of this remarkable band. From the body blow riffs of Read All About It, to the beautiful melodies of upcoming first single I Don t Need Your Loving, from the groove of High Class Woman to the classic feeling ballad Making Me Pay, this is an album that shows the bands influences stem from iconic rock and roll shrine of rock albums from the 1970s many years before the band members were born merged with a truly contemporary feel. Driving riffs and instant melodies all overlaid with the unique and powerful vocals of Nathan James. Nathan James on Inglorious II : It came together very organically after spending time touring together and felt great. We knew we were making an album this time too! We focused on getting our sounds just right so we could get into the studio and out in the least time possible. Between Adde's flat in Malmö, Sweden and Colin s family home in Somerset, England, this album came together quickly. We spent three weekends in Somerset, writing in a kind of 9-5 fashion, whereby we knew we were at work. Then after a lovely home cooked dinner we would relax, have a few beers and balance out our hard work, the environment is so important to be creative and we had it good! 2 / 8
