STREAM/SHARE FEATURE SINGLE
'BUILT ON BONES' HERE
Vancouver Island based alt-rockers Vogue Villains share their new album Built On Bones out now on all digital streaming platforms. The band is also showcasing the title track 'Built On Bones' as the feature single. Listen to the full album here.
Like many other artists before them, the creation of Vogue Villains’ new album is a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. As soon as the band's shows were cancelled and they were laid off from their jobs, they quickly shifted gears and started writing and demoing all the material they had on the back burner. In doing so, they found they were able to get to know themselves better as a band, hone in on a signature sound, and really figure out what they wanted to say on the record.
"A recurring theme for us on this album is coming to terms with the necessary dismantling, analysis and reconstruction of our lives from atop the bones of our past," says lead vocalist / bassist Andrew Baskin. "In a lot of ways, this album is about accountability, whether in ourselves or in others. It's about realizing that it's time to get your shit together, change now or forever hold your peace, because like it or not, you may just be the villain of your own story. This is where we knock it all down. It's time to rebuild."
Based in Campbell River, BC, Vogue Villains are a hard rocking alternative band with a musical foundation planted firmly in catchy melodies and multi-part harmonies. Their live show is big, dirty and full of raw energy while also having a humorous stage presence that goes hand in hand with their tongue-in-cheek lyrics. Set on making music that feels unique, yet unafraid to wear their many influences on their sleeves (QOTSA, Billy Talent and Arctic Monkeys to name a few), this powerhouse of a band has created a sound that is undeniably and unmistakably their own.
Recently announced as The Zone 91.3's "Band Of The Month" for March 2024, Vogue Villains will tour across BC and Alberta this month to support their new album. See below for full tour dates. For more information, please visit voguevillains.com.
