April 7th will see the release of “Useless Propaganda”, the third album by Milan based One Horse Band, which will be coming out via Go Down Records. In support of the album, One Horse Band has released a music video for the new single “Supersonic”. Watch it below.

“Supersonic is a straight and simple rock’n’roll song. Sometimes you try to look suspicious or even sophisticated, afterall you always end up grabbing a guitar and playing the same old three chords. It’s such a timeless formula.” One Horse Band comments. 

Recorded in Toronto, Canada, produced and mixed by the Los Angeles rock producer Dave Schiffman (who has worked for bands like Rage Against The Machine, System Of A Down and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club), the new album dials down the aggression in favor of reflection.

Coming from a strict do it yourself philosophy and a fast & loud attitude, the One Horse Band has not completely left his rawness behind but carefully redefined it in a more mature and polished dress. “Useless Propaganda” intentionally rips apart the idea of what the One Horse Band is and represents, sounding like a fine tuned mash up between alternative rock, garage noise and punk anger. Lyrics are getting very personal, but even the most introspective moments are delivered with the same desperation and represent a voice of righteous rage in the modern age. “Useless Propaganda” is an intimate journey from innocence to disillusion, a new evolutionary stage in the One Horse Band path and a painful scream that will probably remain unheard.

In support of the upcoming album, One Horse Band has shared a lyric video for the brand new single “A Little More”. You can watch the video here:

One Horse Band on “A Little More”:

“Sooner or later we all experienced the feeling of being swallowed by the big machine above our heads. This song is about giving all you’ve got and constantly being not enough, no matter how hard you try. Featuring both acoustic and electric guitars, old school synthesizers and sweet reverbs, the song takes the listener on a deep ride through the One Horse Band’s World, where dreams and reality collide“.

“Santa Claus” is the ONE HORSE BAND‘s first single from the forthcoming album due for release in 2023 via Go Down Records. Recorded at Dream House Studios in Toronto, produced and mixed by Dave Schiffman (two-time winner at Grammy Awards and well known for his long collaboration with Rick Rubin), the track breaks a three-year hiatus and shows a marked evolution in the One Horse Band‘s sound, which is now more layered and refined than in the past. The use of synthesizers, acoustic guitars and percussion works together with the basic setup of every one man band. All this matches perfectly with the dreamy lyrics that give the listener full freedom of interpretation. “Santa Claus” is a wonderful contemporary fairy tale, speaking of oppression, freedom and rising to parallel worlds in which to finally feel at ease.

The single is available today, December 23rd on all streaming platforms via Go Down Records

About One Horse Band:

Someone says he’s half beast and half man, son of a thunderous crash between lysergic hallucinations and brutal reality, a psycho race to a tragic end. The truth is ONE HORSE BAND happens to be the loudest one man band on Planet Earth, standing on the verge of human abyss with his unique blend of alternative rock, post-punk anger and raw blues reminiscence.

Based in Milan, Italy, he self recorded his first album Let’s Gallop! in 2017 and got involved in a never ending tour through Italy and Europe, building his solid reputation and constantly improving his incredible live show.

In 2018 he wrote his sophomore album Keep On Dancing, entirely produced by the legendary Jim Diamond (The White Stripes, The Sonics, The Dirtbombs), recorded at Outside Inside Studio in Italy and released by Area Pirata in 2019.

In late 2021 he travelled to Canada and started working on his new record with Dave Schiffman (two times Grammy Award winner and known for his long time collaboration with Rick Rubin) at Dreamhouse Studios in Toronto. A new album is going to be released in Spring 2023 via Go Down Records, anticipated by a few single releases, leading up to the full record.

Through the years One Horse Band has constantly overstepped every barrier in the one man band niche, destroying cliches and proudly embodying both animal’s wilderness and brittleness of human nature.
