Dead Company marks the follow-up to 2023’s Back to the Water Below – their fourth full-length studio record – which debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, their fourth consecutive number one album. As with Back to the Water Below, Dead Company was self-produced in Brighton and was written during a period of positive personal change for both men. Kerr got engaged, while Thatcher welcomed his first son into the world earlier this year. Without looking back or trading in nostalgia, Dead Company emerged from a desire to create their fastest and heaviest record yet, taking cues from their early work but applying all the knowledge and skills they’ve learnt in the years since.
Royal Blood have established themselves as one of the most important rock bands of their generation. Having toured the world multiple times, they have played sold-out headline shows and major festivals to audiences across the globe. Their music has amassed more than 2.8 billion streams across all platforms to date.
