Trampolene have unveiled the video to the high-octane single, ‘Divided Kingdom’, with Gigwise the first to rolling it out.
The band led by singer/guitarist Jack Jones, who is now a member of Peter Doherty’s touring band The Puta Madres, have taken this single from their mini album, Pocket Album 5 that’s out 25 November, Gigwise said. Similarly to their previous releases, it features a mixture of poetry and rock ‘n’ roll – making them a one stop shop for fans who want to see a Millennial John Cooper Clarke, and a feral mosh-pit inducing guitar band with meaningful lyrics in one gig, Gigiwise said.
?‘Divided Kingdom’ is an electrifying all-guns-blazing cut that revolves around a guitar riff that’s like Tom Morello in a thrash-y punk band. It conveys the riled up feelings towards a post-Brexit Britain in the song. Beneath that, is a distorted chord pattern that rumbles from the guitar like a heavy thunderstorm; the nuanced technique Jones uses to get this inimitable sound implies he’s an axe-wileder at the top of his game; it’s no wonder he’s been picked out to play for Peter Doherty. The all-analog equipment at Ray Davies’ Konk studios in London, where it was recorded, gives it incredible tone, too,” Gigwise said.
