It’s the only real healthy coping mechanism I've ever had. It’s life-saving. I don't care about any superficial things when I’m making a record.” On their resonant fourth album Revelations, produced by Shook and out March 29 via Thirty Tigers, these raw and resilient tracks come first. Throughout, Shook’s deft storytelling documents regular people getting by and keeping on, all presented without filter or pretension. In 2022, Shook was remarkably productive. They released two albums: debut solo indie rock record Cruel Liars under the moniker Mightmare (Kill Rock Stars) and a third Disarmers full-length called Nightroamer (Thirty Tigers). Compared to every Disarmers record before that, which captured the in- the-room energy of the band with live recorded songs, the latter LP was instead more of a product of the studio with meticulous tracking sessions and an outside producer. While that effort was well-received, Shook believed the songs on Revelations deserved a more direct approach. “Since the Disarmers started in 2015, our strength has always been in our live performance,” says Shook. “To me, an album should capture the essence of a band. With this new set of songs that are all super special to me, I didn't trust anybody else to capture the songs and decide how to best serve each song.” Shook, who honed their production skills with their Mightmare LP and Izzy Ryder’s debut record, confidently took the reins during a blistering recording session, capturing 10 songs in two days. For Shook, it was paramount the recordings match the band’s tangible live ferocity because these songs boast their most immediate lyrics yet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abeyance Records","offers":[{"title":"Orange LP","offer_id":50402125349195,"sku":"2188773","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50402125250891,"sku":"2188770","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50402125021515,"sku":"2188764","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_8d329a9d_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726533060"},{"product_id":"sidelong","title":"Sidelong","description":"\u003cp\u003eNorth Carolina's Sarah Shook sings with a conviction and hard honesty sorely missing in much of today's Americana landscape. Rowdy punk rock insolence to the right, a bottle in a bag; organic three chords and the truth frankness to the left. Always passionate, at times profane, Sarah stalks\/walks the line between vulnerable and menacing, her voice strong and uneasy, country classic but with contemporary, earthy tension. Writing with blunt urgency - so refreshing these days it's almost startling - Sarah's lyrics are in turn smart, funny, mean, and above all, uncompromising. Sly turns of phrase so spot on they feel as true as a hymn. Anger that's as confrontational as it is concise. Humour that's as wry and resigned as a park bench prophet. Meanwhile, the Disarmers hit all the sweet spots from Nashville's Lower Broad to Bakersfield and take Sarah's unflinching tales out for some late-night kicks. At times it's as simple and muscular as Luther Perkins' boom-chicka-boom or as downtown as Johnny Thunders. From the indie-rock snarl in 'Heal Me' to the big sky horizon of a Cormac McCarthy western in 'No Name,' the Disarmers keep it in the pocket, tight and tough. Sidelong is a record that will make you sit up and notice. This is a new voice for a new country.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloodshot","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50485228077387,"sku":"1010855","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/5045ebb9-ebc9-49c8-aeea-3c486f4b3408_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727597446"},{"product_id":"years-2","title":"Years","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen \u003ci\u003eSidelong\u003c\/i\u003e, Sarah Shook and the Disarmers' debut album, was released in early 2017, it quickly earned kudos for its blast of fresh, fierce honesty and sly wit. It was a welcome new voice in a genre too often mired in the staid and conventional. Years solidifies the point: Sarah Shook and the Disarmers have moved from getting people's attention to commanding it. Inspired by artists such as the Sex Pistols, Elliott Smith and Hank Williams, Sarah sings with confidence, control, and a hint of menace. The Disarmers match her on every track. At its pounding heart, Years crackles with a pointedly contemporary and relevant take on the outlaw spirit. Built around the buoyant pedal steel of Phil Sullivan, and the post-punk rattle and Live at San Quentin hum of Eric Peterson's guitar, there are echoes of Nikki Lane and Merle Haggard as much as Ty Segall. Its home is the ragged-but- real honky tonk, not the bro-country \"honky tonk.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloodshot","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50485432746315,"sku":"1029570","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/d3f16710-90e2-4876-8d72-09c84fda8ac7_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727599606"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/collections\/sarah-shook-and-the-disarmers.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
