Britrock legends The Wildhearts have announced a new studio album. Satanic Rites Of The Wildhearts will be released in the spring of 2025, and is the follow-up to 2021's 21st Century Love Songs.
"The songs were written during a period of transition, from extremely negative to positive," says band leader Ginger Wildheart. "I realised how much control I have over my mental health, and the songs came from that understanding. There’s everything here – catchy choruses, proper fuck-off riffs, anger, frustration, acceptance and revelation, with plenty of insane detours. The album starts pessimistic and ends up like ‘Ah, so I can turn my life around?’
