THE SHRINE To Release Bless Off Album In March
January 13, 2014, 10 years ago
California hard rockers THE SHRINE will release their new album, Bless Off, on March 11th via Tee Pee Records. Recorded at Eliminator Studios in Venice Beach, CA, Bless Off is the follow-up to the power trio's debut album, Primitive Blast.
Recorded on reel-to-reel tape using vintage gear and colossal Marshall stacks, Bless Off is a record that attacks with buzzing riffs, blazing hooks and a bruising, mega-amplified punch. The album features 11 tracks of quintessential riff rock channeling hazy hesher glories including a song ('The Duke') with lyrics penned by Chuck Dukowski in 1983 originally intended for an unreleased BLACK FLAG song. The cover art to Bless Off features The Shrine's ever-present wolf mascot and is an homage to legendary skate punk and gig flyer artist Ric Clayton (SUICIDAL TENDENCIES) and Dogtown Skateboards.
