Troy Von Balthazar’s 4th studio album was recorded in Berlin and the South of France. He used a combination of an old Tascam 388, tape machine and Protools, a bunch of amazing guitar pedals, and vintage microphones.
It's lo-fi songwriting and recording at it's best, stream of consciousness music structures and powerful lyrics. The songs create a very distinct atmosphere that is really "The TvB sound".
Knights of Something will be released on LP, CD & digital on April 1st 2016:
You can listen to the track "Manic high" from the new album on Soundcloud. Enjoy!
TvB will tour Europe in spring: more news later.
