In 2019, he also won the Sama Award for Best Rock Album for Perfection Kills.
Shelter of Bones was recorded over a three-year period from 2019 to 2021. “The pandemic allowed me to take my time, and really think about how I want the songs to come across,” reflects Patlansky.
“In many ways, I tried to keep the sound from past albums that I’ve become known for in my arrangements and songwriting, but definitely took some different turns along the way.”
I’ve always seen a record as a time capsule of where an artist is in a particular time of their lives.” For Patlansky, Shelter of Bones covers a three-year period of many ups and downs, and, as a result, the South African guitarist believes the process has been a very interesting journey,” he said.
