Those eagerly anticipating the release of Clap Clap Riot's second full-length album will be sorely disappointed if they're after the same raucous rock that made their first, Counting Spins, such a success.
That's not to say Nobody/Everybody isn't distinctively a Clap Clap Riot album. That element of riotous abandon that stands the rockers out from the pack is still there, but as band member Dave Rowlands explains, they didn't want to rest on their laurels and worked hard stripping their sound back to basics, and building it back up again, under the guidance of Kody Nielson (Mint Chicks) on production desk duties.
"It was a huge risk for us because the last album had some really good success to it. But we got to the end of that and decided we wanted to go back effectively and work harder for a record like we did previously with the EP; sort of flip our recording process on its head and do it in more of a live domain."
And it's Nielson's trademark touch - that 60s lo-fi vibe - that gives this new record its point of difference.
