WHY SECOND TIME AROUND?

Well, the song refers to what you might do if you were given a second chance to live your life, knowing the things you know now. Could you do any better, or would you make the same mistakes again? Would you end up in a better place, or just a different one?

The band says:

“The world is a very different place from the one we inhabited in 2019, when we recorded the album “Red”. That album was an attempt to harden up, move away from the lighter pop feel of our previous records into something a bit harder. I’m not sure we really succeeded – it has its moments, but it’s also deeply flawed. Given the chance to do things over, we wouldn’t make that album like that again.

Then of course, we ran smack bang into the pandemic. The plans we had went up in smoke, and life took a very different turn. “Adventures in Wonderland” is a much better album, in our opinion, but also very much a product of its time. The songs are good, but they were all developed in isolation, in a locked-down land where we couldn’t even shout hello at each other over the garden fence. The recordings were built upon old drum tracks from previous recordings and everyone did their bit in their own homes. There was no chance for any of the songs to live, to breath, to grow.

What that album did lead to was a burst of home recordings which eventually saw the light of day on our 2022 compilation album “The Riviera Sessions”. Anyone who only listened to those last two albums would think that we were a slightly shambolic, lo-fi, garage band who threw things together and glued them with noise. But that’s not really who we are either.

A lot of people have said to us we are a much better band live – that just makes us think we simply haven’t got it right yet. So we approached this album in a different way. We learned all the songs together, as a band, practiced them and played some of them live before we recorded them. And for the first time in our 10 year career we went into a proper recording studio. We used nice amps, nice guitars, nice microphones, but most importantly we all played together, at the same time. Radical, we know.

So here we have Second Time Around. We think it’s an improvement on past efforts, and we really hope you enjoy it. We don’t have time to dwell though, because we’ve already moved on. We’re learning the next LP as we speak, and that one is going to be… well, that’s a different story for a different time.

The Charlie Tipper Rebellion (aka Arrest! Charlie Tipper) image

The Charlie Tipper Rebellion (aka Arrest! Charlie Tipper) Bristol, UK

The band began life as The Charlie Tipper Experiment in 2013, releasing an album and a clutch of singles for Breaking Down Recordings.

In 2015 the band became The Charlie Tipper Conspiracy for no real reason other than they thought it would be a good idea to keep people guessing as to what they were up to.

This happened again in December 2017 when the band became Arrest! Charlie Tipper.. ... more
