Drones have announced their new album Our Hell Is Right Here, due for release on 12th February 2021 via Lockjaw Records (UK) and Thousand Island Records (North America).
“It’s been a pretty rough ride for the past couple of years,” says vocalist Lois McDougall of the band’s journey so far. “But I struggle with claiming my problems and sadness as valid because they are disproportionate to the danger and loss that many face every day. It got to the point where I was almost ashamed to write songs about my own life. However, I’m learning that personal care and self-worth is not something to be diminished. There are songs on this album that I had to write for my own therapy. Whilst writing this record, I went through a divorce, lost a family member and was battling with my own mental health. At the same time, it felt like the world was falling apart. Our Hell Is Right Here is the product of my experiences over the past few months. There’s a lot of sadness on this record, but I can now look back and celebrate who I have become in spite of it all.”
The band have released the album’s title-track, Our Hell Is Right Here, which features a guest appearance from Petrol Girls‘ Ren Aldridge.
