BOOTBLACKS – Paradise (Limited Translucent Light PURPLE Vinyl) - LP

The all new, 5th regular Studio album (the first since 2020!) by the Brooklyn/NY based act! The Bootblacks 2025 album “Paradise” marks a departure from the manic percussion and guitar-driven energy of the artist’s angular post-punk roots to a more electronic and immersive soundscape. The album continues their exploration of the 1980’s musical landscape with melancholic lyrics, shimmering guitar riffs, lush synths, sultry saxophones and bass-driven soundscapes. “Paradise” is an audacious ode to contradiction: lush yet raw, melancholic yet euphoric, polished yet pulsing with grit, where beauty and despair coexist. The first single ‘Only you’ features Chris Venna (ex-Nine Inch Nails, Tweaker…) and Benjamin Harrison (aka Max Cruise), known as bandleader and musician on several Cirque du Soleil touring shows, all around the world! Since their formation, Bootblacks have released several critically acclaimed albums, including "Veins" (2016), "Fragments" (2018), and "Thin Skies" (2020). The band has also toured extensively throughout North America and Europe, performing at renowned venues and festivals. The band is currently ON TOUR in Europe with Nox Novacula.
