“This World Turns” is the third studio album from Scottish rock trio Hair of the Dog. Recorded and produced with Graeme Young of Chamber Studios (Hair of the Dog, The Siren's Song) and mixed by James Atkinson of the Gentlemans Pistols , “This World Turns” is Hair of the Dogs most experimental and adventurous album to date. As with previous albums, “This World Turns” acts as a snapshot of the bands life experiences - this time focusing on themes of maturity, responsibility and reflection:
"Since
the release of our debut album, our lives have all changed rather drastically.
Jon now has two kids, Iain is married and I'm engaged due to be married later
this year! Naturally, these choices force you to reflect on your life, how
you've lived it and how you WANT to live it moving forward. “This World Turns”
is an album that focuses on the theme of viewing the world through aged eyes.
We're not kids anymore, yeah we can still party with the best of them, but we
always write truthfully and from the heart - so the themes throughout this
album are a lot more mature as a result. The main message of the album, is that
no matter what happens in your life, This World Turns - that it always
turn, so make the most of your time here, because as good ol'Bill said
"This is Just a Ride".
“This
World Turns” will be released on digital, CD and
Vinyl via Kozmik Artifactz this summer but if the
prospect of waiting that long is killing you, worry not because today, we can
exclusively premiere a brand new track in the form of album opener “This
World Turns”. If that wasn’t enough
the band are giving away the track for free, which you can download here.
