Label: Artoffact Released 10/24/2025 Please note: The First pressing of Paradise comes in a deluxe gatefold sleeve with bonus insert, on light purple translucent vinyl. The fifth studio album (and first since 2020!) from the Brooklyn/NY band! Bootblacks 2025's album, "Paradise," marks a departure from the manic percussion and guitar-driven energy of the artist's edgy post-punk roots toward a more immersive, electronic soundscape. The album continues the exploration of the '80s musical landscape with melancholic lyrics, shimmering guitar riffs, lush synths, sultry saxophones, and bass-driven soundscapes. "Paradise" is a bold ode to contradiction: lush yet raw, melancholic yet euphoric, lucid yet pulsing with grit, where beauty and desperation coexist. The first single, "Only You," features Chris Venna (ex-Nine Inch Nails, Tweaker...) and Benjamin Harrison (aka Max Cruise), known as a bandleader and performer in several Cirque du Soleil shows touring the world! Track listing: Forbidden Flames Only You (feat. Chris Vrenna & Benjamin Harrison) Paradise Can You Feel It? (Anymore) Wilderness When You Want Leipzig (feat. Oskar Carls [VIAGRA BOYS]) Fade Away Melt
