"We knew it would be the right thing and the best way that we could honour Dolores."
A year on from the tragic passing of The Cranberries frontwoman Dolores O'Riordan, the group have shared that they'll be releasing their final album this year.
Titled In The End, O'Riordan and guitarist/co-songwriter Noel Hogan had recorded 11 demo tracks for the album prior to her death in January last year.
"We knew this had to be one of the, if not the, best Cranberries album that we could possibly do," shares Hogan.
"The worry was that we would destroy the legacy of the band by making an album that wasn’t up to standard. Once we had gone through all the demos that Dolores and I had worked on and decided that we had such a strong album we knew it would be the right thing and the best way that we could honour Dolores."
The initial demos were taken back into the studio with producer Stephen Street, where the band then built the rest of the tracks around O'Riordan's vocals.
All Over Now is the first song to be released from the album, which is out 26 April. Listen to it below.
