A Carlisle band’s latest album has immediately made the top 10 of the international iTunes Electronic music chart.
Novablood released Destroy the Magic yesterday, Friday October 4, to critical acclaim from the dance music scene across the globe.
It received a ’10 out of 10′ rating from respected European music magazine Zone, international dance music website, Chromatic Club, described the album as Incredible and international dance music website The Music Essentials, based in India, called it a standout album.
The Carlisle trio comprise of singer/songwriter Mark Zowie, guitarist Paul Newton and Paolo Di Liberto on technology.
Having signed to Old World-New World in the summer, the band have released two singles for the label with a third, Move Through You, also released yesterday.
“The response from the first set of songs was incredible,” Mark said. “We had labels wanting the album very early on its conception. We eventually went with Old World – New World who deal with some incredible artists both from their label and their management company.
“The writing of Destroy The Magic became such a fun writing process and I think it brought energy to the compositions.
“The arrangements in part are quite instant but there’s a brooding element I don’t think you hear too often in song-led dance orientated music.
“The lyrical content is about the spectrum of love and hate. Failed relationships and how we deal with those either in a positive or negative destructive manner.”
