AFFÄIRE – En Route (2024) *HQ*

Lions Pride Music is releasing ”En Route”, the upcoming new album from melodic hard rockers AFFÄIRE. In defiance of the 1990s music industry’s attempt to dictate the terms of rock and roll, AFFÄIRE emerged as a beacon of unyielding spirit. Rejecting the notion that rock should be self-pitying and somber, this Portuguese band kept the genre’s essence unadulterated.
Their journey began in late 2011 with the release of their debut single “Born Too Late” a 7″ vinyl limited to 300 hand-numbered copies. The subsequent years saw AFFÄIRE releasing various albums and EP’s and gracing prominent stages at renowned festivals such as Hard ‘n’ Heavy Festival and Coq Rock Fest.

AFFÄIRE injects to their melodic tunes a a strong dose of sleaze with the Scandinavian flavor of the genre. They write solid songs and catchy choruses, and while production could be better, the band compensates with relentless energy n’ attitude. Additionally, as proof of their profound love for the ’80s, there’s two interludes, short tracks as homage to video games done in a synth-wave fashion.
”En Route” is a testament to AFFÄIRE growth and dedication – there isn’t today too much bands playing this hard n’ sleaze sub-genre.
