'Unbroken', acclaimed album by New Model Army is out today

“’Unbroken’ is a scorcher. A no-messing-about embrace of the essence of NMA… which bares its soul from the outset without the merest hint of inscrutability. And yet it shimmers with diversity” –
Vive Le Rock
 
“A band still on top form, New Model Army continue to create music that is passionate and poignant from everything they see around them… causing us to view the everyday in a new way. [It] is a pagan spirituality, which is in touch with this land’s past, present and future. Long may they continue their journey” – Louder Than War
 
MAJOR UK & EUROPEAN HEADLINE TOUR STARTS IN FEB
 

New Model Army release their brand-new studio album Unbroken today. It shows the current face of the band, bringing together both their old school energy and contemporary sophistication to create one of the finest albums of their long career.
 
Their sixteenth collection of new studio material, it is a very New Model Army album, full of guitars but with the emphasis on the rhythmic power of bass and drums which characterises all the band’s work. With Unbroken, the band continue to push the boundaries of their signature sound while staying true to their heart. The subjects and moods are variable, creating a diverse collection of tracks which touch on topics ranging from social and political commentary to deeply personal reflections.  

The album was written and recorded over an extended period of time, with the process interrupted by both the delayed 40th Anniversary shows and the recent Sinfonia live orchestral project.
 
“We were writing and recording ideas in our own studio from mid-2021 and had already decided early on that our number one choice to mix it would be the legendary Tchad Blake. The album sounds like us, but different again, and it has been beautifully mixed – full-on, dynamic and musical,” the band have revealed.
