WhenSavagesdelivered the Adore Life artwork, they really captured the feeling of the music contained within, recalls Matador founder Chris Lombardi. A giant fist of a record. Its visceral and taut much like their incendiary live shows. This record reminds thatSavageswere the REAL DEAL.

Its about change and the power to change. Its about metamorphosis and evolution. Its about sticking to your guns and toughing it out. Its about now, not tomorrow. Its about recognizing your potential. Its about self-doubt and inaction. Its about you. Its about me. Its about you and me and the others. Its about the choices we make. Its about finding the poetry and avoiding the clich. Its about being the solution, not the problem. Its about showing weakness to be strong. Its about digging through your dirt to look for diamonds. It’s about claiming your right to think unacceptable thoughts. Its about boredom and the things we do to drive it away. Its about being on your own so you can be with people. Its about knowing what it means to be human and what it might mean one day. Its about the parts and the sum of the parts. It’s about the music and the message: together, one and the same. Its about bass, guitars, drums, and vocals. Its about opening-out and never, ever dying. But most of all its about love, every kind of love. Love is the answer.
