As the follow-up to their show-stopping album, 'Promised Land', The Karma Effect arrive with their third record, 'Cruel Intentions' — and it's the most complete, crystal-clear realisation of their ambitions yet: leaner, louder, heavier, and joyously larger-than-life. Exploring love, lust, and danger with dark passion and flashes of sass, the songs deliver swagger and wit in abundance.
The band's modus operandi is "modern vintage", a desire to polish up the retro sounds they were raised on into a gleaming, modern bundle of groove and energy.
"We've thrown everything at this album," says singer, Henry Gottelier. "We've worked with producer, Michael Charman again but also brought in Romesh Dodangoda to mix it; to make every note count, bringing a stadium sound to your ears."
