Since 2008 The Pretty Reckless have taken the rock 'n' roll world by storm, revamping it for a whole new generation of music lovers by throwing the rulebook out and introducing a bold vision unlike anything else on the music scene. Now, with the announcement of their new album Other Worlds, to be released on the 4th November,they are set to continue with this winning streak.
Describing the album, vocalist Taylor Momsen stated: "For a long time, we've been trying to figure out an alternative way of releasing music, including songs we love that didn't make our records, covers, and alternate versions... this is a different take on the traditional format of a record and a stripped back version of us that our fans haven't really heard before, but it's still us."
Guitarist Ben Philips also explained: "You get to hear a different side of Taylor's vocals... It was a chance for us to see what she would sound like singing songs by people who have inspired us. It also gave us some perspective of where we need to go and what we need to be if we want to be that good."
