Bio:
Rock band from South East Kent, UK.Collateral have been busy in the studio since the release of their debut EP ‘4 Shots!’ which was originally released on November 17, 2018 and featured the single ‘Midnight Queen’. After the single got to the top of the Australian Radio Charts, it was then added to the main playlist on Planet Rock; the UK’s biggest classic rock radio station (the single appears on the band’s upcoming debut album).The exciting and flamboyant Kent-based rock and roll band are comprised of Angelo Tristan (lead vocals, guitar), Todd Winger (guitar), Jack Bentley-Smith (bass) and Ben Atkinson (drums).On May 3, 2019, Collateral released their next single, ‘Lullaby’ which was the first new song taken from their highly anticipated debut album. The single was accompanied by a live style music video which was celebrated by Planet Rock and was premiered on their official website.After the release of the ‘4 Shots!’ EP, Collateral worked relentlessly to keep the momentum going. They won a Camden Rocks Festival competition out of 20,000 bands to play the main stage at the Electric Ballroom on June 1, 2019. A few months later, they won a competition between 40 bands at the Ramblin’ Man Rumble to play the Rising Stage at the Ramblin’ Man Fair festival 2019. The band drew the biggest crowd when they played the Rising Stage at Ramblin’ Man.One of their most exciting achievements for Collateral in 2019, was when they won a competition out of 200,000 entrants to support Jon Bon Jovi on his Runaway to Paradise Mediterranean Cruise departing Barcelona to Majorca on August 26th.Now, Collateral’s hotly tipped debut album is likely to propel them next level. A lot of people don’t know what to expect from the new album, as the band have been tight-lipped about the new songs. Collateral have created a state-of-the-art rock album that will enable fans to feel the blood, sweat and glory that went into the recording of every song.
Album:
British four-piece rock band Collateral are set to release their highly anticipated sophomore album "Should've Known Better". The album is distributed worldwide by Cargo. The new single "Glass Sky" and the forthcoming album "Should've Known Better" are produced by Dan Weller (Those Damn Crows, Enter Shikari, Monster Truck, Kris Barras, Holding Absence, Bury Tomorrow)."I love massive riffs, massive hooks and feel-good guitar music," says Weller. "When Collateral sent me their demos, I jumped at chance to produce their new record. I'm proud of what we managed to create. It's Collateral mk2 - ambitious, daring and refined. I can't wait for people to hear it." Since the band released their debut album (Top 5 UK Rock Album Chart) at the start of 2020 Collateral have spent no time standing still. Covid came only weeks after the debut album was released and forced the band to cancel their highly successful tour with Phil X (Bon Jovi) halfway through. This made the band hungry to keep the momentum. With innovative ways to produce top quality live streams, the band became special guests supporting the likes of Skid Row, H.e.a.t and Reckless Love.The exciting and flamboyant Kent-based rock and roll band are comprised of Angelo Tristan (lead vocals, guitar), Louis Malagodi (guitar), Jack Bentley-Smith (bass) and Ben Atkinson (drums).On October 21, 2022, Collateral independently released a re-mixed and re-mastered version of their debut album "Re-Wired", which featured Jeff Scott Soto, Phil X, Kee Marcello, Rudy Sarzo, Danny Vaughn, and Joel Hoekstra. The re-release saw the band in the Official UK Rock Charts at #12.After the gruelling back-to-back tours with Skid Row, H.e.a.t and Reckless Love, the band ignited a spark and strengthened their already loyal fanbase leading them to win the opening slot at 2023's Stonedead Festival, leading the band to perform their biggest show.Collateral's hotly tipped sophomore album looks like it will take them to the next level. A lot of people don't know what to expect from the new album, as the band have been tight-lipped about the new songs. Collateral have created a state-of-the-art rock album that will immerse listeners in their rock music universe, enabling fans to feel the blood, sweat and glory that went into the recording of every song."We felt that our debut album was lacking the production," reflects Collateral's frontman, Angelo Tristan. "For the sophomore album, I wanted to make sure that this time we left no room for error and so got one of the hottest producers in the music industry, Dan Weller, to help lift these songs into a new dimension. With Dan's pioneering studio expertise, this album has massive production quality that enables you to get lost in each character-filled track. Dan really brought out the emotions we were trying to portray and has achieved it with his own unique style." "We wanted this album to express where we were in our own lives since the release of our first. So much has happened since then, I mean the world shut down for what felt like a lifetime! And it was obvious that people were going to need some sort of optimism. I hope 'Glass Sky' is one of those songs that gives people the belief to find themselves again." "Whereas, the feel-good 'Just One Of Those Days' is trying to find the good side of a bad day. Me being me, couldn't help but to write a big power ballad, 'The Long Road', that I wrote from a very hard and deep place, in hope that it could maybe bring some peace and comfort to people who need it. I think there's all aspects of life running though this album and what it means to us will remain in our hearts forever." "Should've Known Better" is an album that goes beyond specific music genres," says Angelo. "It's almost like a soundtrack to a beating heart. It's an album that will remain timeless in years to come."
