Modern Canadian rockers BRKN LOVE release their third full-length album, ‘The Program’, via Spinefarm.
Exuding bravado, mystique and a whole lot of heart, BRKN LOVE sets the rulebook on fire by plugging in, turning up and churning out the kind of rock ‘n’ roll that makes you feel a little freer.
Their gritty riffs pack enough punch to shake any stage while the grooves quake with just the right amount of hip-swinging gusto. Led by vocalist and guitarist Justin Benlolo, the music drips swagger, soul and spirit, amplified by arena-sized hooks and intriguingly inventive musicality.
An impromptu 2023 trip to visit a friend in Charleston, SC gave rise to their third studio album, ‘The Program’. Justin initially planned on spending a weekend in town. That weekend turned into nine weeks and he returned to Toronto with the bulk of the album’s material.
“I didn’t have anything else to do, so I brought all of my gear and studio equipment,” Justin recalls. “I was so inspired by the environment and the friends I made. It’s a big city, but it’s not huge. It’s just beautiful though. The experience inspired the whole record. Instead of being so picturesque and metaphorical, I told stories.”
The album title even referenced the name of the text group for his new friends in Charleston, embedding the experience and the city in the fabric of the music. The vision had already crystallized before he left for Los Angeles where he recorded with longtime producer Anton DeLost (Cleopatrick, The Warning, State Champs, Dead Poet Society). These friends, and a variety of other characters he met, ultimately inspired the concept at the heart of ‘The Program’. BRKN LOVE have fulfilled a clear destiny to be as free as possible on their third full-length LP.
