Jones commented:

“‘Guess Who’s Back’ is not only the lead-off track to our new album ‘Electric Sounds’, it’s also the imperative sentence everyone is begging to answer.

Not working for two years really felt like touring rock bands were being put out to pasture. But I guess that only made us try harder. We were still able to record and release an album during the pandemic (‘Power Trio’, 2021). We toured as soon as we were allowed. Now that ‘Electric Sounds’ is getting released, it doesn’t feel like we missed a beat.

During the pandemic, we moved away from each other. JC lives in Finland and Rich lives in Prince Edward Island. So the writing for this band has changed. We used to bash out ideas in our rehearsal place, day after day, but it’s more about sending files back and forth now. However, last summer, while on tour, we did manage to jam out ideas in a rehearsal room in Berlin for a few days. Out of those jams came the nubs for five songs…”

He also added:

“I’d like to think ‘Electric Sounds’ falls in line with all our previous albums. Over the years, we’ve carved out a sound and we’re sticking to it. But if you were to zoom in and compare it to other albums, I’d like to think it’s a bit faster than our other albums. Initially, I wanted all the songs to sound like our song ‘Cadillac’ — plodding, mid-tempo, heavy, and to the point. Our songs are usually about rocking, wanting to rock, enjoying life while rocking, and sometimes I’ll sing about a woman. You can expect zero surprises!”
