The Struts have announced their fourth studio album ‘Pretty Vicious’ – find all the details below.
The Derby rock band – comprising Luke Spiller, Adam Slack, Jed Elliott and Gethin Davies – are due to release the 11-track collection on November 3 via Big Machine. You can pre-order/pre-save it here.
Following on from 2020’s ‘Strange Days’, the forthcoming record was co-produced by The Struts alongside Julian Raymond (Fleetwood Mac, Cheap Trick). It was executive produced by Big Machine Label Group CEO Scott Borchetta.
“This record showcases each individual member’s strengths,” explained frontman Spiller in a statement. “It’s some of my favourite music, hands down, we’ve ever conjured up. It’s the record everyone’s been waiting for.”
‘Pretty Vicious’ has already been previewed by the single ‘Too Good At Raising Hell’, which will serve as the LP’s opening song.
