LA-based rockers The Bronx return for their sixth studio album 'Bronx VI' which comes out worldwide on Cooking Vinyl August 27th. Bronx VI builds on the legacy The Bronx has established in its near two-decade existence, but which definitely proves the door to what's next has not just been kicked down, but chopped up and burned to a cinder. Yes, the first four tracks - "White Shadow", "Superbloom", "Watering The Well" and "Curb Feelers" - bristles with the wild and untamed energy that's defined the band from the off, but then - all of a sudden, as "Peace Pipe" kicks in - the pace and mood shifts to something a little less aggressive. Elsewhere, "Mexican Summer" and its (relatively) chilled-out mariachi vibes serve as an homage to the band's alter-ego, Mariachi El Bronx (and was written while that incarnation of the band was on tour), while fatalistic closer "Participation Trophy" masks the Caughthran's existential dread behind searing riffs and a catchy, defiant and exuberant melody.
