The Sore Losers
Beyond Repair , the first single by The Sore Losers, was immediately in De Afrekening on Studio Brussel for 21 weeks, making it the longest-listed single of 2010. With their second album Roslyn, the band entered the Belgian album top 200 at number 5. A headline show in Ancienne Belgique and a performance at Rock Werchter followed.
It all makes The Sore Losers confident enough to work with Dave Cobb for their third album SKYDOGS . The American producer has been nominated for a Grammy several times and is affectionately called “Nashville's Rick Rubin” by NPR. The sound of SKYDOGS is classic, distorted and analogue and is entirely at the service of the short, energetic songs that are mostly influenced by bands like the MC5, Stooges and Yardbirds in terms of both attitude and sound. Frontman Jan Straetemans calls it without a doubt their most dangerous record ever.
