Description
Whether we look for him or not, we all find God somewhere. It could be in nature. It could be in church. It could be in the metaverse. It differs for each and every one of us. In terms of where God might be, The Kills aren‚Äôt necessarily saying, but the duo – Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince – certainly sound like they‚Äôve seen him. How else could you explain the primal call-and-response between Alison‚Äôs full body blues-soul vocal catharsis and Jamie‚Äôs swaggering, guillotine-smooth guitar transmissions on the duo‚Äôs sixth full-length offering, God Games? The Kills have emerged as international rock stars, setting the pace for the genre, shaping this era‚Äôs sound, and redefining what rock music can be in the 21st century. They‚Äôre the rare force of nature who can tour with Queens of the Stone Age or Guns N‚Äô Roses and light up Coachella. Returning home from the road in 2019, Alison and Jamie commenced writing for what would become God Games. However, the old adage, ‚ÄúMake plans, God laughs,‚Äù couldn‚Äôt have been more apropos. The Kills decamped to an old church (a bit ironic now isn‚Äôt it?) where they recorded with old friend and Academy and GRAMMY Award-winning producer Paul Epworth [Adele]. ‚ÄúPaul was our very first soundman in 2002,‚Äù recalls Jamie. ‚ÄúSince he was with us when we had two amps, a lightbulb, and a couple of mics in a van, it seemed perfect. He knew how far it had come and could trace the thread back.‚Äù
