Frontman Kelly Jones said: "Hanging On Your Hinges was influenced by my love of early ZZ Top and darker stuff like Masters of Reality (and maybe some Iggy Pop too) and probably nods back to Bartender & The Thief.
"It’s the song on this album that says 'Oochya!' more than anything else, so it’s something we wanted the fans to hear first.
"Having done some really emotionally led and introspective songs on the last album (Kind), we decided to come back with a bang this time, give the fans something to get a little loose to.
"The album title (Oochya!) was always a saying me and the band used in the studio to mean “let’s have it”, a blast of energy and optimism and that’s what we wanted to get across with …Hinges."
Oochya! follows Stereophonics’ previous album Kind, which went to number one in the UK album charts in 2019, outselling nearest competitor Kanye West by over 10,000 copies. It became the band’s sevenths UK number one album in the process.
