Press Club - To All The Ones That I Love - Transparent Caracao Vinyl - Pre Order 2/5/25

This is a pre order title for release 2.5.25

Having spent much of 2024 doing what they do best, touring across the UK/Europe, and playing a 44 date national Australian tour supporting Grinspoon, it’s bewildering that Press Club had time to put the finishing touches on their new album. Today, the Naarm/Melbourne four piece announce the independent release of their fourth album, with distro through Inertia (Aus) and Cargo (UK/EU). To All The Ones That I Love will be released on Friday May 2nd, with double single ‘Tightrope / Vacate’ out today!

To All The Ones That I Love was recorded at the band’s own studio in Footscray with guitarist Greg Rietwyk on production and mixing, before the album was mastered by Kris Crummett (Closure in Moscow, Dune Rats, Currents). Encapsulating the maturity of the band, the album offers the listener a ride through various genres and traverses themes of introspection, growth, change and learning from past mistakes. Lead singer Natalie Foster reflects on the new single, "Tightrope is about hitting that point where you’re done trying to fix things, becoming frustrated and numb taking on everybody else's thoughts, worries and expectations. It’s that feeling of barely holding it together, like you’re walking a tightrope on the edge of a breakdown. Musically, it's a bit of an ode to The Hives, written after meeting them at Hurricane festival in Germany." Uncharacteristic of their usual songwriting practices, 'Tightrope' was built around the guitar riff in the verse. It had a particular punctuation that sort of informed what the overall feel of the chorus was going to. “It was one of those songs that came together pretty organically on its own, we didn't have to bang our heads against our instruments for a week or anything.” Adds the band’s bassist Iain MacRae. Meanwhile, ‘Vacate’ was written with the intention of a long repetitive form, one that builds on itself the entire time. Sonically inspired by the atmospheric guitar parts played by Robert Fripp on ‘Heroes' by David Bowie, and the staccato deep lead guitar lines that appear across the New Order and Joy Division catalogues.
