Slim-Digipack / After the success of their previous album The Search Goes On the bands 6th album Long Road Made of Gold is due for release in May 2015. 10 brand new Kamchatka tunes, this time mixed and mastered by UK's finest, Russ Russell. When listening to Long Road Made of Gold you can really tell this is a band who took their time to make a great album, not a bunch of songs thrown together. There's a certain playfulness to this album, both in the performance as well as the song arrangements that has a stronger presence than before Buckle up and get ready for a joyous a ride as Kamchatka take the listener to a couple of places the band never visited before without losing it's trademark sound. Album opener Take Me Back Homestarts with a banjo to underline the journeyman vibe and then twists and turns into a grooving progressive riff fest. The album title is a combination of two songs this time, the sly blues chanting bottleneck song Long Road and the ferocious shuffle beat of Made Of Gold. There's no lack of uptempo rockers either and the first single Get Your Game On is surely proof of this with it's steady beat and uplifting sing a long chorus.
