Exciting news! Recording work for the next release starts next week and we are hoping to have the first single from our sophomore album to be ready to conquer the airwaves somewhere around June.

Meanwhile, our "Mechanics of Life" LP received an Akademia Music Award as "Best Alternative Rock Album" in Los Angeles. Big thank you to all the radio stations and journalists that have helped us get noticed on the West Coast, we will make sure to plan our first conquest of USA some time very soon.

PB ought to be back on the road with brand new songs (and some cool stage props and visuals) around September and October. But if you want to be the first to hear our new album live, keep your eyes peeled for several festival appearances in summer.

BIG news coming up next week!

SUMMER IS NEARLY HERE!

Hey there, our dear Plastic buddies! Our Shed Studio is nice and cosy these days. We know you are all eager to hear about our new songs and the sophomore album.

Well, at the moment we have about 5 finished demos and around 10 more unfinished ones - so there is a chance we could start production pretty soon. We've decided to spend most of March and April exploring and preparing new material. So there is a chance a new single might drop very soon.

"Mechanics of Life" is still going strong, with more and more radio stations around the world picking up the songs for rotation. We are very keen on the fact, that there is no immediate "favourite" amongst 11 tracks; instead we notice that every song gets attention from different journalists, reviewers and radio hosts. We will be doing more interviews and posting all the links into our PRESS section here, so if you are especially curious about Plastic Barricades behind-the-scenes - then that is the place to click on. 

After the short-lived snowy chaos, London is looking quite optimistic and it feels like spring is just around the corner now. So stay positive and keep getting better at whatever you are up to!

Here they are, the last few hours of 2017. 

It was quite a special year for us as a band. First full album release, UK tour with some amazing bands, a special gig at the legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool, our first ever animated music video, all these incredibly awesome album reviews and interviews from UK, USA, Europe and Australia.

Tonight we want to say THANK YOU to our amazing team (Elina, Caterina, Stuart, Carl, Andrew, Andy) and to all you LOVELY fans from around the globe!

Hey there! Ready to wave 2017 goodbye? We have some cool news to go along with the festive mood! Two more tracks from "Mechanics of Life" album - "Our Favourite Delusions" and "Singularity-2045" - will get their own music videos! And one of them will be an animated one! We are very excited about this! Keep your eyes peeled!

The PRESS section has been upgraded with some latest interviews and reviews, so now you know what to do on a lonely winter eve! 

"Mechanics of Life" has received an overwhelming amount of support from journalists and radio DJs worldwide, we are forever grateful! Many of you keep asking us about gigs - new wave of tour announcements should arrive somewhere around mid January. But we can confirm we will be out on the road bringing all the noises to a village near you from the end of February.

We are currently collecting some new interesting material and we are hoping to share some new songs with you all very soon.

Traditional New Year's Eve blog post coming up on the 31st of December!

What an INCREDIBLE tour! We’ve played 11 dates and travelled 4000 miles around UK with "Mechanics of Life" album tour - it was great to see all you lovely people! Thank you so much for coming out to support us! Beautiful crowds in amazing venues! VERY SPECIAL thank you to all the press that wrote such amazing reviews of our album and helped us out with promoting this tour.

Tour highlights:

- played legendary Cavern Club Liverpool. Childhood dream-come-true type event. Great vibes and very good sound. Also loading the gear down Matthew street is so much fun, you have to try to avoid all the tourists. And all the tourists think you are the next Beatles. Met wonderful Beija Flo who can sing her heart out, heard timeless rock of Shamona and some funky riffing from Two Of Substance!
