Nineteen-73 Artist Promotions are delighted to present
We Are Now - the second album from Welsh
progressive rock band C-sides.
Produced,
recorded and mixed by the four‐piece band at Martin Rosser's new studio, the album
follows on from their debut album ‘Devitrification’, which was released in
2011.
Guitarist
Martin Rosser (ex-Magenta), bassist Jay MacDonald (Sankara) and drummer Allan
Mason‐Jones 
(ex-Magenta) were responsible for the music, while vocalist Allen
McCarthy penned the lyrics.
Musically
the album reflects an eclectic range of influences, ranging from 70s stalwarts Yes (especially the 90125 era of the
band) and Gentle Giant via Rush - particularly their 80s
incarnation when synthesizers were an important part of their sound - towards
modern progressive bands like Mew.  While not a concept album, Allen has created
lyrical themes throughout the individual songs that link them together to form
a larger body of work. The band believe that strong melodies are key to a
successful song. The vocal melodies and harmonies present on the new album
belie the sometimes challenging and complex musical arrangements that underpin
them. We Are Now is an album that
rewards the listener, as repeated plays reveal the rich texture, changing time
signatures and instrumental ability of the band.

The band are available for features and interviews. Reviewers and radio stations - please contact Stephen
Lambe at Nineteen-73 Artist Promotions via [email protected]
