' '
,: A CERTAIN RATIO are back with a new album, ACR Loco. Revitalized :,
: by their most successful tour in over two decades, the band :
:' returned to the studio to record their first album in 12 years ':
,: û due for release September 25 on Mute. :,
: :
:' The new 10-track album will be released on CD, cassette, ':
,: limited edition colored vinyl and digital platforms. The vinyl :,
: will be available in one of four colors: white, blue, red and :
:' turquoise, randomly packed, with each color of varying rarity. ':
,: :,
: ACR Loco was recorded by the core line up of Jez Kerr, Martin :
:' Moscrop and Donald Johnson with contributions from the ACR live ':
,: line up û Tony Quigley on sax, Denise Johnson adds vocals and :,
: Matt Steele provides keyboards. Additional guests include Sink :
:' Ya TeethÆs Maria Uzor and Gemma Cullingford, Gabe Gurnsey ':
,: (Factory Floor) and Manchester luminaries Mike Joyce and Eric :,
: Random. :
:' ':
,: ôThis album is a culmination of everything we've ever done,ö :,
: explains Kerr. The album distills the different directions and :
:' styles that have run throughout the bandÆs career, one that ':
,: began in the late æ70s with Factory RecordsÆ first ever 7ö :,
: release. ôDigging into the past for the boxset [ACR:BOX was :
:' released in 2019 on Mute] must have rubbed off on us and ':
,: influenced the current album,ö says Moscrop. ôI think it helped :,
: spark up our imagination. It allowed us to work in some of the :
:' past as we move forward into the future.ö ':
,: :,
: Keen on the joys of collaboration and sharing, it makes sense :
:' that adding the ACR touch to other artists via a series of ':
,: reworks led to their latest album taking shape. Recent reworks :,
: of tracks for the likes of Barry Adamson, The Charlatans and :
:' Maps saw the band return to the studio to unpick those original ':
,: tracks. ôThe reworks were crucial,ö says Donald Johnson. ôThey :,
: got us back in the studio and forced a union and a bond. They :
:' allowed us to start getting a groove again.ö Kerr mirrors this. ':
,: ôWe love doing the reworks because it's just us doing our :,
: thing,ö he says. ôThe three of us jamming is really the basis of :
:' it all. Once you get that groove thereÆs no stopping us.ö ':
