‼️ "TALL TALES" ALBUM COVER AND TRACKLIST REVEAL ‼️
Five years have passed since their hit record "Starbound" lit the fuse back in October 2021. Now Osukaru returns with "Tall Tales" - a record that doesn’t just pick up where they left off, but pushes everything further, louder and sharper. This is Osukaru at full tilt.
Hailing from Gothenburg City in Sweden, the band comes back with sharpened teeth, turning the gain all the way up without letting go of the anthemic DNA that has defined them for years. "Tall Tales" refuses to play it safe - instead, it charges headfirst into a pool where classic hard rock collides with a high-octane metal edge, where hooks hit harder and riffs cut deeper than ever before.
“Tall Tales' is the album I’ve been wanting to make for so many years,” says guitarist and founder Oz Hawe Petersson. “It shows a sharp, more authentic side of Osukaru that, while it honours and respects our past, also steers us forward. It's an album that truly fits the force we have become on stage.”
“Tall Tales” was produced by Oz Hawe Petersson together with long-time singer and band partner Fredrik Werner (Daytona, Air Raid), mixed by Svein Jensen (Alicate, Sister Sin) and mastered by Mats Eriksson (Degreed).
The cover and booklet artwork was created by Oz Hawe Petersson with actress/model Eliza Sica and carries a subtle sense of both unease and wonder that mirrors the album’s mysterious lyrical themes.
For fans of: Dokken, Crazy Lixx, Lynch Mob, Warrant and H.E.A.T, with a splash of '89-'94 era Mötley Crüe on the side.
"Tall Tales" will be available August 21st on CD and digital via Pride & Joy Music + limited edition vinyl and cassette via the band.
