Desperation Is The English Way Vol.1 is undoubtedly the heaviest, darkest, most diverse and emotive release to date from Plymouth’s Brotherhood Of The Lake.
It’s an album spawned from the darker side of life, the worries of the world and real life sadness, expressed in the form of sensitive themes including, social decline, depression, suicide and loss of hope.
The complexity of the record and the exceptional musicianship delivers 10 impacting tracks which reward further listens.
Desperation Is The English Way Vol.1 is the culmination of numerous years touring intensely, bearing witness to a decline in society and a 4-day recording session at Le Cottage Studios in Kent with Gavin Collett, where BOTL successfully took on the task of capturing the soundtrack to a society in crisis.
Brotherhood Of The Lake are a freethinking band and standalone offering something new to the market.
