Wojtek ‘Suseł’ Kałuża, the band’s vocalist
reveals: “Right now we've just finished recording drums at Maq Studio and
we're working on the guitars at Satanic Audio with the acclaimed Swedish
producer Haldor Grunberg. Next up is bass and by the end of the month we're
hoping to record vocals. We have eleven tracks prepared for the new album. No
revolution intended but we're very happy with the material - we managed to write
a few tracks that pushed us to our extremes, like the fastest or the heaviest
track. Soon we'll reveal the title, the full tracklist and the cover artwork
made by Maciej Kamuda who worked with such bands as Virgin Snatch, Corruption,
Cretin or Spirit.”
J. D. Overdrive’s previous album titled “Fortune Favors The
Brave” was released in May 2013. Check the video promoting the album in

The band was formed in 2007 when guitarist Michal “Stempel”
Stemplowski (along with drummer Luksus and bassist Kuba) recruited vocalist
Wojciech “Susel” Kaluza for his new rock project dubbed Jack Daniels Overdrive.
They self-released their debut EP called “Pure Concentrated Evil", which
received a bunch of great reviews in various webzines and magazines. They played
their very first show supporting Jesus Chrysler Suicide (a legendary Polish act)
and the following two opening for Beatallica. In the meantime the band
experienced two line-up changes, welcoming in their ranks drummer Lukasz
“Jooras” Jurewicz and bassist Lukasz “Peo” Pomietło. In March 2009 they were
given the honor of performing in Krakow with the living legend of stoner metal –
Phil Anselmo's Down. In the following months came the inevitable – they changed
their name to J. D. Overdrive to avoid legal problems with the Tennessee tycoon.
And just when they thought that nothing can surprise them – on March 9th, 2011
they opened for Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society in Warsaw. After over three
years of gathering experience at numerous live shows and sharpening their
material, J.D. Overdrive were proud to release their debut album. The album
entitled "Sex, Whiskey & Southern Blood" was released by Metal Mind
Productions in June 2011. This year and the following brought more live
performances and the band supported such acts as Blood Ceremony, Whitesnake and
Soulfly. In May 2013 they released their sophomore album entitled “Fortune
Favors The Brave”! The mixing and mastering duties for the album was held by
Piotr Gruenpeter who's best known for his work with the post-black phenomenon
THAW, as well as from bands Searching For Calm and Sun For Miles.
Line-up:
Wojtek ‘Suseł’ Kałuża – vocal
Michał ‘Stempel’ Stemplowski – guitar
Łukasz ‘Joorek’ Jurewicz – drums
Marcin 'Stasiu' Łyźniak– bass

As previously announced, J. D. Overdrive - The Kindest Of
Deaths
 Tracklist:
1. Wreckage, Part I
2. Crippled King
3. The Lesser Evil
4. The Fury In Me
5. Dull Knives and Dead Friends
6. Seeds and Stones
7. The Greater Good
8. Demon Days
9. Wreckage, Part II
10. A Painful Reminder
11. The Kindest of Deaths
Stempel, the band’s guitarist comments: “For the last two
years I have been indoctrinated by our vocalist to listen to such great bands as
High on Fire, Clutch or Kongh. Then there are a few discoveries I've made on my
own, like Planet of Zeus or Red Fang. I think people will hear those
inspirations on the new album. But in the same time we're making the same music
we did before and having a blast while doing it, so we haven't really lost our
old identity. Although I do hope we'll manage to surprise a few people with the
album's sound which in our opinion is just amazing. The songs sound very live
and organic... whatever that means (laughs).”
Suseł, vocals, adds: “Everything in our band is dictated
by chance and the title of the new album is no different. To make things
funnier, while personally I hate it when bands call their albums the same way as
one of their songs, it was me who made this suggestion. ‘The Kindest of Deaths’
is a track that really stands out from the rest and is absolutely overwhelming.
When the concept for the cover artwork emerged (which was a perfect match for
the title) we knew we made the right choice. The cover itself, designed by
Maciej Kamuda, is amazing - totally not our style but yet perfectly reflecting
the album's dynamics. In our opinion the new record will be a great continuation
of what we did before. It's still JDO but we managed to squeeze in a couple of
fresh ideas as well which will hopefully result in an engaging listen. And the
sound that Stempel mentioned - man, we never sounded better, period (massive
thanks go out to Haldor and Satanic Audio). But don't take our word for it -
soon the music will speak for itself...”
The album was recorded, mixed and mastered in Satanic Audio
Studio with Haldor Grunberg as a producer.
