Like the sportsman cutting chipped teeth in the lower leagues before shooting to the very top, this band have lugged all the amps, placated the in-house sound guy for an easier life, their nails dirty, their hair unkempt. Enough.\u003cbr\u003e Except it’s never enough, because despite their slinky, swampy, razor-sharp, blues-drenched, guitar thrashed alt. rock songs that form new album ‘Maverick Thinker’ and suggest that the door is opening for bigger rooms and broader audiences, it’s those sticky basement bar stages where the songs have always shed a skin and\u003cbr\u003ecome alive. The record put the three piece behind the glass at Sound City Studios in LA, treading the same carpet as the likes of Nirvana, Johnny Cash, Neil Young, and Fleetwood Mac and they might well have inhaled the spirit of them all.\u003cbr\u003e William The Conqueror’s protagonist is Ruarri Joseph, who knows his way around a melody and a verse. Joseph’s wryness suggests life just ain’t plain sailin’ and he fizzes that sigh and lament into something that breathes heavy with heart and with soul.\u003cbr\u003e LP in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeve and digital download card.\u003cbr\u003e Tourdates - March 21 Exeter Cavern, 22 Cardiff Clwb Ifor Bach, 23 London Omeara, 25 Norwich Waterfront Studio, 26 Leeds Hyde Park Book Club, 27 Edinburgh Sneaky Pete’s, 28 Nottingham Bodega, 30 Leicester The Cookie, 31 Brighton Prince Albert, April 1 Oxford The Jericho Tavern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003eMove On\u003cbr\u003eThe Deep End\u003cbr\u003eAlive at Last\u003cbr\u003eJesus Died a Young Man\u003cbr\u003eQuiet Life\u003cbr\u003eWake Up\u003cbr\u003eFiction\u003cbr\u003eSuddenly Scared (24 Storeys High)\u003cbr\u003eReasons\u003cbr\u003eMaverick Thinker\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chrysalis Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41463146643612,"sku":"BRCV6","price":24.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/1_0d53d034-622d-49a5-9175-708fc11596fc.jpg?v=1645380076","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/william-the-conqueror-maverick-thinker-green-coloured-vinyl","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
