Tax the heat"Change Your Position" out now + "Medicine Sessions"
Electrifying Bristolian rockers TAX THE HEAT release their sophomore album »Change Your Position« today. The new offering has that familiar mix of alternative-rock swagger that we have come to love about the band and is laden with big, chunky riffs and foot stompin' anthems. Listening to the new tunes, it may seem obvious what bands have influenced TAX THE HEAT's sound, but how about those guilty pleasures? Watch as Jack and Alex spill the beans on what tunes get played in the van when the guys are on tour,
"If an album is about capturing a band or artist at a certain point, »Change Your Position« might have happened at the perfect time. As a band we toured, found our sound, found our place and took inspiration from a world in utter chaos. With »Change Your Position« we pushed ourselves creatively as hard as we could and it took us further into ourselves than we expected - we hope it's apparent to the listener." - Alex Veale

Alex Veale says, "When we wrote the »Change Your Position« album we followed our nose and let the music manifest itself in the way it did. Now we've started rehearsing for the tour it's become apparent how good this will feel to play the album live and loud in some fantastic intimate venues. We can't wait, join us!"
