Op 2 april verschijnt het tweede solo-album van multi-instrumentalist en bekend sessiedrummer Shane Gaalaas. De schijf krijgt de titel "Hinge".
""Hinge" continues where "Primer" left off and touches on everything from metallic bludgeon riffola ("To The Ground", "Funny People"), to Beatles-esque acoustic pop ("Just Like You", "Til Forever Ends"), grinding electronica-infused grooves ("Sickify"), and anthemic big-hook rock ("The Wave", "Inside Out"), before closing things out with the experimental "Respect the Zamboni".
Opnieuw neemt Shane Gaalaas ook de zang, gitaar- en baspartijen en toetsen voor zijn rekening. In vergelijking met zijn eerste album geeft Shane de drums nu meer nadruk:
"The feedback I received on "Primer" made me realize that a lot of people get my albums because they enjoy my drumming and want to hear more radical playing. On "Hinge", I spent more time making the grooves and the parts speak out."
