THE BLACK CROWES To Release New CD, Give Away Free Second Album - June 9, 2009
THE BLACK CROWES will release their new studio CD, "Before the Frost..." , on September 1, 2009. A second album, titled "…Until The Freeze", will be given away for free exclusively through a unique download code which is included in "Before The Frost…" as a "thank you" to their fans for two decades of continued support.
"Before the Frost..." and its corresponding free album, "…Until The Freeze", were recorded over a series of five nights at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, New York. Although both are studio albums, all the new material was performed and recorded in front of an intimate audience of the band's fans, making them a part of THE BLACK CROWES musical history.
The innovative technique of inviting fans into the studio to become part of the process during recording is a rare experience.
"Before the Frost..." features eleven new and previously unreleased BLACK CROWES songs, including "Good Morning Captain", "I Ain't Hiding", "Been a Long Time (Waiting on Love)", and other original songs that will serve to spotlight the bands ability to make emotional connections through their music. The free album "…Until The Freeze" is a nine-song collection featuring eight new original BLACK CROWES songs plus a cover version of the STEPHEN STILLS classic "So Many Times".
A limited-edition vinyl release of "Before The Frost…Until The Freeze", featuring all 20 tracks, will also be available on September 1, 2009.
Chris Robinson conceived the concept of "Before the Frost...Until The Freeze". "I think we fulfilled a musical commitment to continue on the golden road of artistic independence," he said. "Approaching 20 years into our careers, we still are ambitious enough to push ourselves to create something unique that we have never done before."
Critical acclaim and popular success has seen THE BLACK CROWES sell over 20 million albums worldwide. As they approach their upcoming 20th anniversary of the release of one of rock's most influential records, "Shake Your Money Maker", which produced such hits as "Jealous Again", "She Talks To Angels" and "Hard to Handle", they are time and again hailed as one of rock and roll's best live acts.
THE BLACK CROWES are: Chris Robinson (vocals), Rich Robinson (guitar, vocals), Steve Gorman (drums), Sven Pipien (bass), Adam MacDougall (keyboards) and Luther Dickinson (guitar).

01. Good Morning Captain
02. Been A Long Time (Waiting On Love)
03. Appaloosa
04. A Train Still Makes A Lonely Sound
05. I Ain't Hiding
06. Kept My Soul

"Before the Frost…Until The Freeze" was produced by Paul Stacey and will be released through THE BLACK CROWES' label, Silver Arrow Records, and Megaforce Records.

Re: Buy one get one free Black Crowes album
Shake Your Moneymaker was amazing. Haven't heard it in ages though.
Definitely an innovative way to release something, and these types of things are gonna have to continue and evolve with the industry in its current state.
Madagas, we're lucky we got that one album from GNR. Axl's always at least ten years behind the curve, and I will never expect anything to be done like this from GNR. CD vol. 2(if it happens) will go down like CD did(not talking about charts or any of that crap), and in pipe dream fantasy land imagining a reunion with a new album, it would simply be in Wal Mart with tons of merch being shoved down peoples throats like with AC/DC.
If you're looking for innovation, you're looking in the wrong direction.
