Having proved themselves as a tight-as-glue live unit over the past few years in small venues, Reading four-piece The Amazons are about to make the jump over to the big league with a debut album released via major label, Fiction.
The Amazons have been dominating radio with their anthemic rock singles 'Little Something' and 'Black Magic' and fans' prayers wishing to hear more are now being answered with this new record. They're on course to take the baton from Royal Blood as the hottest new rock band in the UK right now and the album will give them the creedence needed to make that a reality.
Visually the album is stunning. The rockers for to satisfy their inner pyro and blow up a van in the middle of the street in a controlled manner whilst not hurting anyone. The results is everything they could have wanted and more.
The album is produced by the Grammy nominated Catherine Marks (Wolf Alice, Foals, PJ Harvey) and recorded at the world famous Assault and Battery Studios in west London. Sounds like a choice mix.

‘Stay With Me’
‘Burn My Eyes’
‘In My Mind’
