Legendary rock icons and 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominees The Black Crowes have announced the release date of their highly anticipated new studio album, A Pound of Feathers, out March 13th via Silver Arrow Records.

Produced by Jay Joyce, the new album pushes their iconic blend of blues, soul and rock into electrifying new terrain. With a career spanning four decades, the band’s upcoming release stands as a towering testament to their enduring artistic fire and significance in rock and roll.

The spiked opener “Profane Prophecy” sets the trajectory for the whole album, packing the track with cheeky, fun and funky lyricism only Chris and Rich could bring to life, while the cynical slow-burning “Pharmacy Chronicles” sings of reckoning rather than retreat, urging people to face their vices, as freedom comes with recognition.

Speaking about the album, Chris Robinson reveals:

“We made this record in eight to ten days. Bringing the high and inspiration from ‘Happiness Bastards’ into this album, it was a natural progression. We experimented more, we wrote on instinct and how we were feeling in the moment. Rich brought a spontaneity to the record that I can’t describe, but it’s the best shit he’s ever done.”

His brother, Rich Robinson, continues,

“This album feels transformative to us. Going back to our roots, we felt that spark in the studio and how we work together. Lighting a fire that hits harder, more jagged but is still true to our musical essence.”

I have an unhealthy obsession with bad horror movies, the song Wanted Dead Or Alive and crap British game shows. I do this not because of the sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll lifestyle it affords me but more because it gives me an excuse to listen to bands that sound like hippos mating.
