Description
The Cranberries are back with Roses, their first studio album in over ten years. The career of the cranberries - Dolores O'Riordan, Noel Hogan, Mike Hogan and Fergal Lawler - began in 1989 in their Irish hometown of Limerick, and in the 1990s they sold more than 30 million albums worldwide. Roses was produced by Stephen Street (The Smiths, Blur), the band's longtime friend and musical partner, and recalls the original and refreshing sound of their first two albums: Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? From 1993 and the successor No Need To Argue from 1994. The last album before Roses was Wake Up And Smell The Coffee released in 2001. In 2003, The Cranberries announced their separation, but once again came together for an acoustic performance when Dolores O'Riordan received an honorary diploma at Trinity College in 2009. “Once we started playing, it was like we never stopped,” recalls Dolores. “Playing with the cranberries is like when you put on the perfect pair of shoes — it just fits. ” In 2010 they went on a reunion tour, with a total of 107 concerts throughout Europe, North and South America and Asia; the highlight was their very first concert in China in 2011. “During our breakup, I recorded two albums with many different musicians,” explains Dolores, “and by comparison I noticed that Noel and Mike have a very special way of writing chords and how Ferg keeps everything together in a subtle way. ; in the studio. Stephen was totally in his element and everything came together super fast. We felt fresh and young — just like in the old days. ” Guitarist Noel Hogan adds: “It was always clear to me that we would make another album. For the past six years, Dolores and I have been sending each other ideas over and over again. ” On the reunion tour, the band started working on new songs during the soundchecks. “The crowning glory, however, was to be able to work with Stephen Street again - he helped us to find our sound again.
