REESE – Plan B 

Italian melodic alternative rock band REESE will release their new album, “Long Streets”, on November 29, 2024, via Octopus Rising. Today, the band unveils full album details and releases a new single and official music video for ‘Plan B’.

“‘Plan B’ is the second single from the new album” says the band “It is a powerful mid-tempo rock song that starts with an angry riff and resolves to a loud and rough chorus. The riffs are quite heavy and they spread out relentlessly through the whole song creating a sensation of rage and frustration. In fact, the lyrics are about the bitterness that you feel when your great efforts are not rewarded and you end up with your Plan B, which is not exactly what you were expecting”.

REESE are back with a new album two years after the previous work “Dreaming Pieces”. The new album is called “Long Streets” and it was recorded in 2023. It’s the third album of the band. The ten songs of the new work are the prosecution and the evolution of the previous album’s songwriting. The band started from its solid foundation of melodic and energetic alternative rock and tried to refine arrangements, melodies and songs’ fluency. The lyrics are mostly about personal themes and are considerations on some aspects of real life like the fear and insecurities in self-determination, the delusion for strain of interpersonal relationships which lead to isolation, the difficulties in raising a family, the incapacity to enjoy the beautiful moments of life for the constant search for a perfection that doesn’t exist.

About the origin of the album’s title “Long Streets” the band states: “Sometimes it seems to us that we are distant from other people, even from our loved ones. We have the feeling that the spaces between us expand and that the streets of our cities become longer”. The album was recorded both in English and Italian version, the latter with the alternative title “Lunghe Strade”.

The album was recorded, mixed and mastered by Andrea “Spazza” Rigoni at Haunted Studios in Castelgomberto (IT). Michele Luppi took care of the reamp of the vocal tracks at MiLu’s RockLab II in Fabbrico (IT)
