The Loved Drones - Fooled Again (2025) [Hi-Res]

Belgian psych-rock explorers The Loved Drones return with their sixth album, Fooled Again — a bold, nine-track journey recorded at Brussels’ legendary Jet Studio, the oldest in the city, once graced by the Rolling Stones.
A kaleidoscope of sounds unfolds: melancholic rock ballads, raw garage-punk bursts, sprawling krautrock voyages drenched in synths, and the band’s trademark rough energy. Produced by Benjamin Schoos and engineered by Maxime Wathieu, the album embraces contradictions with rare confidence.
The Drones also take a daring step with two radical covers: Dylan’s “Subterranean Homesick Blues”, reimagined without imitation, and the Velvet Underground’s “Sister Ray”, stretched into a hypnotic, guitar-driven sonic cathedral.
Lyrically, Brian Carney cuts deep with sharp, darkly humorous observations on societal collapse, the cynicism of the entertainment industry, and visions of humanity’s cosmic future.
Vintage in feel but rooted in 2025, Fooled Again is The Loved Drones at their most direct, emotional, and uncompromising — confirming their place as free spirits of the Belgian underground.
