ON THE ROCKS PRESENTS
THIS IS A CO-HEADLINE SHOW:
Attention Theives
KERRANG – “Attention Thieves are at the forefront of a new wave of exciting British bands”.
ROCK SOUND MAGAZINE - “Another British band to be proud of 8/10”.
The band found this difficult to deal with after working so hard for so many years to get to this stage and this only speeded up the process of certain members spiralling even further out of control.
To be capable of touring whilst shouldering a slipped disk singer/guitarist Alex Green had become further reliant on self-medication to deal with the pain which resulted in addiction.
It all came to a boiling point when he had a heart Attack age 27 during the recording of their Debut album “Year of the Jackal”.
A complete lifestyle alteration would not have only been life changing but for some member’s lifesaving and that is exactly what happened!
The new look Attention Thieves completed the album that almost never saw the light of day and it is by a mile there best stuff yet.
The album will be one of the most varied genre wise you will hear and tells a story you need to hear.
Year of the jackal is out on the 18th May.
