█ ôThey roam laggardly through rural post-rock, █
█ prog, folk, ambient and doom metal pastures █
█ without even trying your patience. Some parts are █
█ prettily sinister - think Godspeed meets The █
█ League Of entlemen - while others are curiously █
█ euphoric. Highly recommended." Uncut █
█ █
█ "Lupus Pilum Mutat, Non Mentem" - The wolf may █
█ change its fur, but not its nature. This is the █
█ sentiment that runs throughout the new six (6) █
█ track album "I, Vigilante". It encompasses words █
█ of warn-ing and tales of trouble from times past █
█ up to the present, songs of standing your ground █
█ and stories from our history, for it is only █
█ through history we truly exist. █
█ █
█ "I, Vigilante" is something of a catch-up point █
█ for CBP as even though the last mammoth albums █
█ were only released last year, the songs on "The █
█ Resurrectionists" and "Night Raider" are in fact █
█ older, dating back to 2007. So to save █
█ frustrations and to keep the gears oiled, CBP have █
█ recorded five (5) new songs to release this █
█ summer. This is not the usual type of album in █
█ CBPs world, it per-forms a slightly different █
█ agenda, shorter and to-the-point, although the █
█ running time is still around the 45 minute mark. █
█ It makes more of a statement of where the band is █
█ in the live arena, with a noticeably raw and less █
█ produced approach. But this is not to say the next █
█ album will be the same, or there's a new █
█ direction, in fact there are plans for a more █
█ comprehensive full-length album to be completed by █
█ the end of the year. █
█ █
█ This new recording includes the songs █
█ "Troublemaker", We Forgotten Who We Are", █
█ "Fantastic Justice" and the massive tribute to █
█ WWII veterans of the Battle Of The Bulge "Bastogne █
█ Blues". Also included is CBPs faithful tribute to █
█ the 1st Journey album (the FIRST one, i.e. before █
█ Steve Perry) in the form of the song "Of A █
█ Lifetime" and a cover from Mike Curb. █
█ █
█ Spring, 2010 A.D. saw CBP touring in April/May, █
█ with a few select UK & Ireland shows and then █
█ ainland Europe, taking in Germany, Poland, Czech █
█ Republic, Slovinia and Italy. To follow up there █
█ are also plans for some interesting festival █
█ appearances and another trip around Europe in late █
█ October through November. Keep on the lookout for █
█ dates added in the coming weeks. █
