After storming on to global musical radars everywhere with their 2017 offering, ‘Join Hate‘, the French rock quartet RESCUE RANGERS announce the realization of their next studio album.
‘Divisive‘ will arrive from Klonosphere / Season Of Mist / Cargo Records UK on April 5th and, like its predecessor. is produced by none other than Page Hamilton of Helmet. A high-profile proponent for the band, Hamilton discovered RESCUE RANGERS in 2010, when they toured North America at the invite of another outspoken advocate for the act, Nick Oliveri (Mondo Generator, ex-Kyuss). At Hamilton’s request, the band completed an extensive tour of France supporting Helmet before both parties eventually entered the studio and recorded the aforementioned 2017 release, ‘Join Hate’.
Now, RESCUE RANGERS are poised to issue their fourth album ‘Divisive‘, following ‘Join Hate’, ‘Manitoba’ (2012), and ‘Guitars And Dust Dancing’ (2010). Packed with refined, captivating rock and roll that simultaneously pays homage to alternative rock’s glory days, while keeping things real in the contemporary age, the upcoming release is voluminous and stacked with promise.
Today, the first single from ‘Divisive‘ arrives with the lyric video for the song “Accelerate“, which is streaming below along with the album details and itinerary for RESCUE RANGERS‘ nearing European Tour.
