Bio:
Hell’s Addiction formed as a four piece consisting of Ben, Liam, Jason and Luke in 2010 - it was this line up that led to their first album ‘Raise Your Glass’ in 2013 on the back of two stand out singles – Alcohol and Let The Good Times Roll They have always grafted hard to fine tune their craft and in 2015 at which point they started work on their most recent album ‘Broken’. Released in July 2016 it received critical acclaim across the board. The addition of Dan Weir on guitar was timed perfectly for their appearance opening the 2016 Download Boardie Takeover stage. Dan Starting with Statutory Nuisance which brought together three singles ‘We’re On The Road Again’ ‘We’re on Fire’ and ‘The Way I Feel’. These three tracks with a reworked ‘Broken’. On the 8th March 2019 they released the V1.0 EP. Featuring four new tracks showing a different side and increased maturity in their song writing, it has received very strong reviews from every quarter, both in the UK, Europe and the US. Within 48 hours of being released it had reached No.2 in the Amazon Rock Album Charts (only held back by the Queen Platinum Collection), No.1 in the Amazon Hot New Releases, No.1 in the Amazon Digital Downloads Chart and No.7 on iTunes. The band have just completed their 3rd album, 9 O’Clock Horses, which is due for release in the second half of 2023. The album showcases just how far their writing has evolved in 12 genre spanning tracks 9 O’Clock Horses really is very, very hard to ignore!!
Album:
Leicester based Brit rockers HELL’s ADDICTION were, like many a band the world over, stopped in their tracks by the onset of the Pandemic. Coming at a time when the band seemed to be building up a good head of steam, it left the band twiddling their thumbs and wondering what might have been.That wondering stops now with the imminent release of their new album, the enigmatically-monickered ”9 O’Clock Horses”. It’s an album that sees the band heroically making up for lost time over the course of a dozen rampant, retroactive roars of defiance, all of which sound like they were forged in a fire equal parts desperation and determination.A ragged-throated call to arms that LA Guns would have killed to put their name to ‘back in the day’, it provides all the evidence you need that what we have here is a band in the very rudest of health. HELL’S ADDICTION have an organic late 80s hard rock sound, but singer Ben Sargent has a modern earthiness to his voice. This makes for a decent mix of past and present hard rock styles.The band cover a lot of ground across the course of the album, from sunny radio rock (Scream Your Name) to balls-to-the-wall, heads down hard rock bravado (standout track Playing Chicken With A Knife), in the process confirming their status as one of the very best rock bands the UK has to offer in 2023.Everyone plays a part in this statement of intent, with vocalist Sargent leading from the front with a thoroughly convincing performance on just about every track, whilst Dan Weir and Liam Sargent form a formidable six-string partnership behind him.Luke Morley (drums – no, not that Luke Morley…) and bassist Jason Green keep the engine room ticking over nicely, and together, on tracks like the effervescent Run For Your Life (which brings the mighty Gun in their pomp to mind), they give the impression that very big things indeed may be in store for them just a little bit further down the track.We certainly hope that’s the case.
