This album showcases&nbsp;the&nbsp;<strong>Thundermother<\/strong>&nbsp;recording debut for both frontwoman<strong>&nbsp;Linnea Vikstr\u00f6m Egg<\/strong>&nbsp;and for drummer<strong>&nbsp;Joan Massing<\/strong>.&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;<em>Dirty &amp; Divine<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;also welcomes bassist&nbsp;<strong>Majsan Lindberg<\/strong>&nbsp;back into the fold.

But when we recorded it live in the studio after all the other songs were done, it turned out so well that it made it across the finish line. It seems we might have stumbled upon a hit.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8220;So Close&#8221;&nbsp;is out now on all digital streaming services links&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/flypr.benchurl.com\/c\/l?u=11873E1C&amp;e=18B0864&amp;c=10952&amp;t=0&amp;l=E8124DE&amp;email=WmFdhaXAJVKVgi8dFUx9xfSj1o6va%2B1hNyIeD9VsXLU%3D&amp;seq=1\">HERE<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"nv-iframe-embed\"><iframe title=\"THUNDERMOTHER - So close (2024) \/\/ Official Music Video \/\/ AFM Records\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DP7C2IQUsH4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thundermother&nbsp;<\/strong>have always been committed to the electrifying euphoria of real, organic rock \u2018n\u2019 roll. Over the course of 15 years and five widely acclaimed studio albums, they have firmly established themselves as one of the most vivacious and vital hard rock bands around, with a never-say-die spirit and collective charisma that underpin everything they do. These women are rock \u2018n\u2019 roll diehards, and&nbsp;<strong><em>Dirty &amp; Divine<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;takes that ethos up a notch. The sixth&nbsp;<strong>Thundermother<\/strong>&nbsp;album crackles with gritty authenticity and unstoppable passion. For Filippa and Linnea, their newly forged partnership has been an unequivocal success:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c&nbsp;<em>We\u2019ve been working on this a long time, maybe a year and a half,\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>says Filippa, who was pregnant during the&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;<em>Dirty &amp; Divine<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;recording process and is now a&nbsp;<strong>Thunder&nbsp;<em><u>mother<\/u><\/em>&nbsp;<\/strong>for real.&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>\u201cAs soon as Linnea came into the band we started sending demos to each other, and we did loads of writing, which was great, because she\u2019s a fantastic songwriter! I was sending her the music and she was sending me these amazing lyrics and melodies. It\u2019s been fun to work with someone that good! On the last album we had outside songwriters because we didn\u2019t have that kind of synergy in the band. Now I send Linnea music, and then just kick back, because it is guaranteed she\u2019ll send lyrics and melodies that just crush the song.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Dirty &amp; Divine<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;illustrates perfectly all that is new and improved for&nbsp;<strong>Thundermother<\/strong>. As the first two singles already made clear (&#8220;Speaking of the Devil&#8221; and &#8220;I Left My License in the Future&#8221;), every one of the album\u2019s ten, sweat-soaked songs are dripping with potential to saturate and satisfy rock fans. Meanwhile, the decision to record the new material live in the studio has reaped its own rewards.&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;<em>Dirty &amp; Divine<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;is the sound of a kickass rock \u2018n\u2019 roll band doing it for real, and loving every raucous second.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c&nbsp;<em>There is still that genuine Thundermother feeling, with my guitar playing and all of that,\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;says Filippa. \u201c&nbsp;<em>It\u2019s still got a \u201870s vibe, but the melodies are catchier and the vocals are obviously different. We\u2019re always evolving, never standing still. I think this is the best album we\u2019ve made so far, and I\u2019m very picky! [Laughs] We recorded it in Copenhagen, with Soren Andersen producing again, and we recorded eight songs in four days. So this was the quickest recording we\u2019ve ever done, and the best outcome!\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This record represents not just a triumphant return, but a complete rock\u2018n\u2019roll reset.&nbsp;<strong><em>Dirty &amp; Divine<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;is the exhilarating masterpiece that&nbsp;<strong>Thundermother<\/strong>&nbsp;have long had the potential to make. It is an adrenaline-soaked salute to the magic of big riffs and razor-sharp melodies, performed by an electrifying, four-woman line-up with joy in their hearts and world domination still firmly on the agenda. In support of&nbsp;<strong><em>Dirty &amp; Divine<\/em><\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Thundermother<\/strong>&nbsp;will embark on an extensive European tour, kicking off in Hamburg, Germany in early 2025 (find all dates listed below!).
