Swedish heavy rockers TIDAL WAVE release new album "Volume Tree" on Ripple Music!

Swedish stoner rock powerhouse TIDAL WAVE will return with their aptly-titled third album "Volume Tree" this June 5th on Californian label Ripple Music, and unleash the first track with their thunderous "Sideburns" video today! 

Tidal Wave's forthcoming new record Volume Tree captures the loud foursome at their absolute heaviest. These sounds are more sinister than anything on their debut Blueberry Muffin, and the band’s grunge influences punch through on tracks like “Hangman”, while “Temple of Humanity” takes a dark turn by revealing a more progressive side of their music. Lyrically, the album spans from Black Sabbath worship on “Earth” to a bully's redemption tale on the faster and snarling debut single “Sideburns”, while keeping things fresh, modern and as punchy as a knuckleduster.

The band likes to see Volume Tree as a compilation of creative forces, as it was recorded across three different studios and mixed by three different engineers, with each track carving out its own unique soundscape and vibe. All tracks were however mastered by the talented Joona Hassinen at Studio Underjord, with stunning cover art by Kristoffer Nordgren (Prettyshittyinc).

About new single "Sideburns", they say: "In the video, we get to see how a sideburns-wearing bully harasses the band members continuously, stealing shrimp sandwiches and beers, or threatening our bass player Aden with some serious Kung Fu moves. In the end, they have their revenge on the Sideburns guy. While he's resting behind a grocery store, the boys beat him up so badly that he ends up becoming a really nice guy. From a menace to society, the Sideburns dude ends up as an upstanding citizen."

Tidal Wave is a Swedish heavy rock band that revels in the power of the riff. As they left their stamp on the Swedish stoner rock scene with their self-titled 2019 debut album "Blueberry Muffin", the talented four-piece returned in 2023 with an impressive and memorable collection of songs that aims to fill each air particle with fire, fuzz and power: their sophomore album "The Lord Knows". The loud foursome delivers the ultimate blend of in-your-face stoner rock and classic heavy metal bravura with epic riffs for ages, unstoppable dynamics and absolutely face-melting vocals from Alexander 'Sunkan' Sundqvist.
