Creative and professional duo Conflict Choir’s new album “Strange Game” is a masterful blend of haunting melodies, heavy instrumentals, and powerful vocals. This album delivers a unique and polished production that stands out in the hard rock genre. Each of the 12 tracks provides a rich listening experience showcasing the band’s exceptional musical skills and thoughtful lyrics.
Recorded in a dark garage in Worcestershire the album addresses deep themes like technology’s impact and mental health struggles. The soundscapes are epic and cinematic influenced by legends like Jeff Buckley, Pink Floyd and more. The production by Thomas Atlas and Greg Chandler adds a professional touch making the album feel both intimate and grand. We love their production style, it’s solid and polished.
Ali Clinton and Jack Bowles have poured their diverse musical backgrounds into this debut creating a body of work that is both original and meaningful. “Strange Game” is a must-listen offering a fresh and powerful take on modern rock music. This is truly what we call good art.
