The time has finally come! Sweden’s rock sensation BLUES PILLS release their long-awaited self-produced studio album “Holy Moly!” today and are ready to drag the listener into a world of psychedelic tunes, soaring soundscapes, emotional hymns and Elin Larsson‘s powerful soul voice!
After topping the charts in several countries and even hitting the #1 position in Germany with their previous studio effort “Lady In Gold“, the band decided to work with renowned Grammy Award winning Andrew Scheps and Nicolaus Arson (The Hives) to prove that they are here to stay as leaders of a new generation of vintage rock.
To celebrate the release of this third full-length creation “Holy Moly!“, the young quartet presents a new music video for their single ‘Rhythm In The Blood‘, which you can watch here:

“This album is something we’ll be proud of even after death”, the band reflects. “These songs are from a very dark period of our lives. So much loss, anger and anxiety. Sadness and change. A separation into reincarnation. We stand behind every note and every word. This album was created in darkness and it guided us into the light again. One can only hope it will give you comfort too.”

BLUES PILLS founders and main songwriters Elin and Zack spent the majority of their waking moments arranging and refining the songs. Together with drummer André they built up an album in nuances of light and dark. The album is recorded by BLUES PILLS guitarist Zack, although with some helping hands along the way from THE HIVES members Nicolaus Arson and Johan Gustafsson, as well as Martin Jacobsson from Rovljud Sound. Holy Moly! is self- produced by BLUES PILLS and mixed by the Grammy award winning Andrew Scheps (RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, IGGY POP, ADELE, BLACK SABBATH, RIVAL SONS, HOZIER). About “Holy Moly!” Andrew Scheps says: “Holy Moly! can be a deceptive album. On first listen it seems like a great blues/rock album with classic songs and great vocals. On repeated listens though you start to appreciate the layers and nuance. Not often do you get a record that makes a great first impression but is still a grower!”
