Die dritte Platte der finnischen Samiam mit 10 neuen Songs, bekannt von den Touren mit Distants in 2022 und mit duesenjaeger im Juni 2023 in Deutschland (und im Oktober 2022 in Finnland)! Bei uns auf orangenem Vinyl! Die HITS "Fall of the Wagon" und "Hollow Times" hat man auf den Konzerten bereits hören können.
Tolle Band, sehr sympathische Leute und sehr gute Songs!
Das Sahnehäubchen auf der gut ausgefeilten Gitarrenarbeit und der solide drückenden Rhythmusgruppe ist der emotionale, aber kräftige Gesang von Sami. Wer auf Old School Emo Punk der Marke Samiam oder Hot Water Music steht, oder Manifesto Jukebox, um mal in Finnland zu bleiben, kann hier absolut nichts falsch machen!
Die 3. LP kommt als Coop-Veröffentlichung von 5 verschiedenen DIY Labels, nämlich COMBAT ROCK in Finnland und MY RUIN in Deutschland, Sell the Heart in US, Brassneck in UK und Shield in den Niederlanden. Also truly international DIY Punk Rock! Sehr sympathisch das alles, und sehr gut gemacht.
Nicht verpassen! KIPPIS!
Das offizielle Info:
Custody is a five-piece melodic-pop-punk band hailing from southern Finland. Custody are no newcomers into the punk rock music circles, as there’s almost 100 years of combined experience in playing in bands / touring / releasing & records during the past 25+ years.
This specific band was put together in 2015 after touring in several other outfits together during the past several years – with a common cause to put out some pop-punk tunes that were brewing at the time. The band has released a bunch 7 inches and 2 full lengths since then.
The band’s debut full length came out in 2018 which was a busy year for the band seeing them tour in Europe and USA playing club shows and festivals – Booze Cruise in Hamburg & The Fest in Gainesville to name a few.
Album 2 came out during the height of the covid pandemic in 2020. While many shows and tours were canceled, the record itself received much praise from local and foreign media alike.
The band finally managed to tour Europe in the summer of 2022 with The Distants (USA) for 23 days and Germany again for another week in 2023 to sold out venues together with Duesenjaeger.
This new album (called 3), is a collection of songs from the past 3 years. While it's still in the recognisable Custody sound, the arrangements have given a bit more headroom for bass and vocals to shine brighter compared to the previous album, making this a really coherent compilation of catchy rock tunes.
The cover art follows a theme of collage art set already with the first ep in 2015 and has been put together again by Riitta Koukkunen. The release date is set for April 2024. First digital 2 song single “Hollow Times / Undercurrents” airs 20.3.2024
