Jay Buchanan and Scott Holiday of Long Beach, California's Rival Sons have answered more fan questions regarding their new album, Great Western Valkyrie, which was recorded with producer Dave Cobb at LCS Studios in Nashville earlier this year, and was released on June 6th in Europe, June 9th in the UK and June 10th in North America. See all six clips below:

Rival Sons recently visited Google's UK headquarters in London to perform a special live acoustic set ahead of the release of their new studio album. Singer Jay Buchanan and guitarist Scott Holiday sat down with famed BBC Radio 2 presenter "Whispering" Bob Harris to discuss the new album, before playing acoustic variations of two brand new songs.

Watch them performing their new single, "Open My Eyes", live at Google HQ below:

Jay Buchanan comments about Great Western Valkyrie: "Every time we set out to make a record, the experience ends up being some of the old and some of the new. Same studio, same town, same on-spot writing/recording process with the same guys. Actually, not the same guys; we have a new bass player in Dave Beste, and we had my buddy Ikey Owens (The Mars Volta, Jack White) throw down some craziness on keys while he was in town.

"I'd like to think we became a little bit more of ourselves making this record and that the selection of influences has broadened a bit. I thoroughly enjoyed watching Miley during the recording; I believe his playing on this record is his most lyrical and musical yet and that's probably a direct reflection of Beste's fresh blood in the mix. Speaking of Beste, whoa. Thunder from his hands all over this album. I think Scott really expanded his approach in these songs and you can definitely hear it in the moodier tracks, while on the hot tracks you can hear him forcing his aviary of Firebirds to drink moonshine. Dangerous. There are some serious house burners on GWV but there are also a couple where thesis dictated more subtlety from the arrangement.

"My performance? I think it's more of the same on my end, but Cobb did tell me that my finest performances were given in these sessions, but what the fuck does he know? They say the truth is in the taste - I'd say this record is the filthy magazine hidden in the hymnal."
