Robert Plant and The Strange Sensation's new album, Mighty ReArranger is an extraordinary accomplishment from one of the most inventive, consistently daring and talented figures in contemporary music. Plant’s band, The Strange Sensation who worked with him on 2002’s Grammy nominated, Dreamland, have been vital in the development of what looks set to be one of this year’s most talked about albums.

Robert Plant and The Strange Sensation formed in 2001. The band draws together talent from across a broad spectrum of contemporary musicians: Clive Deamer (drums) from Portishead and Roni Size projects; John Baggott (bass) of Portishead and Massive Attack; Billy Fuller (bass) - from Bristol band ‘Fuzz Against Junk; Skin – ambient guitar formerly of Brit Pop phenomena Cast and Justin Adams playing gimbri, darbouka and guitar, late of Sinead O’Connor, Jah Wobble and the Wayward Shakes. Their first album together, Dreamland was informed by Plant’s attraction to and affection for the music of Southern Morocco, and the psychedelic indo-rock of mid to late 60’s in USA.

The new album is a collection of 12 all new, all original songs. Committed and powerful, the album is an electrifying tour de force and takes the world music influences explored in Dreamland and uses them as a springboard for a more electric sound. Mighty ReArranger recalls the drive and passion of Robert Plant and Led Zeppelin’s strongest work and is packed full of explosive riffs, compulsive guitar hooks as well as tender and highly expressive arrangements.
