Putting The Sting Back In Rock With DAN & LIZ From ALL GOOD THINGS

Putting The Sting Back In Rock With DAN & LIZ From ALL GOOD THINGS

LA-based rock outfit All Good Things have been quiet since the breakthrough success of their 2021 album A Hope In Hell, which featured the global phenomenon For The Glory.
After spending years honing their craft musically, the success of that album propelled the band into being an almost household name, setting them up for seemingly limitless possibilities and advancements in their career. But, rather than push themselves into exhaustion, All Good Things took time to pause and reflect once the dust started to settle down. It was a decision that came as a surprise to many, but was also one based on longevity within the band.
Over the ensuing couple of years, All Good Things made significant changes in their musical landscape, the most notable of which was going back to being an independent artist. This allowed the band not only greater creative control in the actual content of music they planned as the next chapter in their quest but, more importantly, the ability to write, record and release new material without time restraints or pressures.
In June, All Good Things returned with their first new music in over two years with The Venom, which was followed earlier this month by No Regrets. Both singles emphatically declared that All Good Things have lost none of their edge, which can only be a good thing for music in general.
HEAVY had the pleasure of catching up with bass player/keyboards/vocalist Liz Hooper and vocalist Dan Murphy to find out more.
We discussed new songs The Venom and No Regrets, and the success of their 2021 album A Hope In Hell. The band reflected on their decision to take a break after the album cycle, describing it as a period of less pressure and more relaxed writing. They also discussed their shift to being independent and the focus on creating music that resonates with their core fan base, free from the constraints of record companies and radio. The band emphasized the importance of staying true to their musical direction rather than conforming to industry expectations.
Dan and Liz discussed their decision to break away from the traditional album release model and opt for releasing singles at a faster pace. They expressed their excitement about the creative freedom and the ability to connect more organically with their audience. They also discussed their willingness to take risks and explore uncharted territory in their creative evolution for the new album, highlighting their collaborative songwriting process and deliberate effort to infuse the music with fresh energy and unconventional themes plus more.
