Rorika and John play in Fleeting Joys which is none less than one of the best shoegaze band of the second wave, post-2000. From another point of view, the song joins the title of the album since it is a French, English collaboration, by the presence of Mark Gardener at the mix table, and American, the Loring family is from Sacramento. The video evokes the old-fashioned charm of Europe, which aspires to transform while retaining its roots. The video was filmed in Portugal by Pedro Wilde&#8221;<\/em><br><br>Dead Horse One are from Valence in the south of France. While recording their first album in 2014, they connected with Ride\u2019s Mark Gardener.\u00a0After listening to their material, Gardener decided to produce their first LP \u2018Without Love We Perish\u2019. Following the release of the album, the band played more than a hundred gigs across Europe for the next three years, which included an appearance\u00a0at the Liverpool Psych Fest. In 2017, the band collaborated with producer John Loring (Fleeting Joys), who produced their second album, \u2018Season of Mist\u2019. While on tour that year, they supported Ride for a handful of shows during their European tour.<br><br>2018 proved to be another momentous year for the band. Dead Horse One shared the stage with the legendary Brian Jonestown Massacre as well with the Philadelphia based band, Nothing for an epic gig in Paris.<br><br>For their third LP \u2018The West Is The Best\u2019 (our on November 2019), the band returned to the studio with the producer John Loring. The album marks a second collaboration with Mark Gardner, who mixed this record. When commenting on the new album\u2019s title and album cover, the band\u2019s lead singer\/songwriter,\u00a0Olivier Debard, said that \u2018The West is The Best\u2019 concerns a variety of complex contemporary and cultural themes and is therefore intentionally ambiguous. Debard continues that the album thematically is \u201c<em>a collection of thwarted love songs in the spirit of\u00a0Sparklehorse and other such 90\u2019s bands<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can pre-order \u2018The West Is The Best\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/girlieaction.us1.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=1d59aca4aeedaab429816159e&amp;id=410d7a4e03&amp;e=3a430a552a\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>French shoegaze band Dead Horse One have announced their third album\u00a0\u2018The West Is The Best\u2019, which will be out\u00a0November 22\u00a0via\u00a0Requiem Pour Un Twister.\u00a0Along with the <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=32719\" title=\"Dead Horse One announce new album \u2018The West Is The Best\u2019 + share \u2018Saudade\u2019 video\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":32720,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"On Culture Addicts: Dead Horse One announce new album \u2018The West Is The Best\u2019 + share \u2018Saudade\u2019 video","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[23,28,29,30,5812],"tags":[8648,8647,8646],"class_list":["post-32719","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-indie","category-music","category-music-video","category-new-release","category-shoegaze","tag-dead-horse-one","tag-saudade","tag-the-west-is-the-best"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/D1D90B3F-FB53-4D1E-B3B4-A561A1CF0CE0.jpeg?fit=5209%2C3401&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-8vJ","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":32927,"url":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=32927","url_meta":{"origin":32719,"position":0},"title":"Dead Horse One release new album + video for \u2018Falling\u2019","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"November 25, 2019","format":false,"excerpt":"\u00a0French Shoegaze band\u00a0Dead Horse One\u00a0have released their third album \u2018The West Is The Best\u2018, which was mixed by Mark Gardener from Ride.
