Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the forthcoming release of ‘Surviving The Law’, the brand new studio album by legendary Scottish rock band Nazareth. Out on 15th April, fans can get their first taste of new music from the record today with the release of a single and video for the song ‘Strange Days’.
It is difficult to sum up in just a few words the influence of Nazareth in the history of rock. Having celebrated their 50th Anniversary in 2018 with the release of ‘Tattooed On My Brain’ (their 24th album), ‘Surviving The Law’ continues the new chapter that started for the band with that album following the arrival of vocalist Carl Sentance, while the remainder of the group line-up also remains intact: Jimmy Murrison (longest serving guitarist in their history), Lee Agnew (drummer since Darrel Sweet’s death in 1999) and Pete Agnew (bassist and founding member).
After original singer Dan McCafferty had left Nazareth for health reasons in 2013, Sentance joined two years later (with the former frontman’s blessing) and the eventual release of the hard rocking ‘Tattooed On My Brain’ showed off a rejuvenated band with all their magic ingredients still in place. As with that record, ‘Surviving The Law’ has been produced by Yann Rouiller at Sub Station in their home town of Dunfermline, Scotland. It features songwriting by all four band members and proves that, 25 albums into their career, the fire of rock ‘n’ roll still burns as bright as ever.
Nazareth originally formed in Dunfermline in 1968, releasing an eponymous debut album three years later. They broke big when, after supporting Deep Purple on a tour, they released the Roger Glover-produced ‘Razamanaz’ album in 1973 to critical and fan acclaim. An impeccable string of hit records followed that included ‘Loud ‘N’ Proud’, ‘Rampant’ and the 1975 smash ‘Hair of the Dog’, which contained the evergreen title track (later covered by Guns N’ Roses on ‘The Spaghetti Incident?’) and ‘Love Hurts’. The group have continued to release albums and tour the globe ever since. Get ready for a very welcome return from Nazareth!
