Video premiere: Black Oak County “Boom Boom Baby”
Danish hard rockers Black Oak County are ramping up for the release of their anticipated third album “III”, with their highly energetic new single and video “Boom Boom Baby”, featuring Nicklas Sonne (Defecto, Aries Descendant).
With its intense, groovy and dead-simple riff and its massive chorus, hook and melody, “Boom Boom Baby” marks a venture into new musical territory for Black Oak County which decided to take a step further in a new direction, by having their very first feature artist on a track.
“With the theme of the lyric and the hook line, we felt like this song could be even better by having a sort of ‘antagonist’ join in for the third verse – and Nicklas Sonne’s vocals just fit our sound perfectly. He blends amazingly with René Kristensen and Niels Beier in the final chorus, and in some cases felt like a third voice in the band like he’d always been there. His gritty vocal performance perfectly summarises the climax of the song, and not only that – he plays a kickass guitar solo on ‘Boom Boom Baby’ as well! We couldn’t be happier with how this collaboration turned out!” says the band.
Black Oak County has dug deep into its pile of musical ideas to come up with a wider range of songs than ever, incorporating brand-new ideas with older material from the early days of the band’s career. “III” is an energetic record, with the band’s well-known mixture of high-intensity low-tuned riffs paying homage to their metal and hard rock heroes, mixed with modern mixing techniques, synthesizers and a fresh take on the band’s familiar sound.
“III” was written in collaboration with Sonne, who co-produced, engineered, mixed and mastered the album.
Catch Black Oak County on tour, as they head out into Europe for a series of dates in Denmark and Germany, with the year culminating in a nationwide tour of Denmark with Danish guitar legends Electric Guitars. For more information, head to www.blackoakcounty.com
“III” will be released on 25th October via Mighty Music.
