11 new rock n roll songs expressing the painful pleasure of redemption through the passionate desire of love.

Hold That Thought Forever is the 4th album for the Last Conspirators. 11 new songs expressing the painful pleasure of redemption through the passionate desire of love. With this album the songwriting alliance of Tim Livingston and Nick Bisanz have crafted a lyrical and sonic soundscape that is reminiscent of the timeless rock albums of the 60s, 70s, and early 80s yet serving it all up with an undeniably modern edge.

From the pure power-pop of “Perfect Lovers in a Complicated World” and “Russian Eyes”, to the sultry, soulful groove of “Addiction” through the mystical vibe of “1302” the album weaves into the urgent new-wave rush of “Fortune Teller” to the lustful spoken desire of “Tracks” and the powerful ballad “Two Days in May”. Despite being stripped of the politics and world affairs of previous releases, in lieu of matters of the heart, the Last Cons relinquish none of their powerful edge evident here in the stunning hard rock of “Blow Away the Sky”, “The Truth and a Gun” and the swaggering “Alright”.

Produced, engineered and recorded by Chris Fisher (Conehead Buddha/ Pluto Walkers) at Easter Island Studios, Hold That Thought Forever is the followup to the Last Conspirators three previous, critically acclaimed, releases. but launches the band into new territory both musically and lyrically. Joining vocalist Livingston and guitarist Bisanz on this project is the newest full-time conspirator Mike Grundy on bass and veteran drummer Al Kash.

The Last Conspirators third album, A CELEBRATION OF FURY, released in 2013, is the followup to their critically acclaimed WARPARTY and WHEN IT ALL COMES DOWN releases. The Big Takeover Magazine call it an "on-target attack in word and sound... a ’60s garage, pub rock, and Joe Strummer-fueled tempest...". "A high-energy sonic assault, railing against corporate radio, mindless nostalgia and the powers that be… played with the palpable passion of rebellion, adding a new-found metallic edge to their already potent brand of politico psych-punk…" says Nippertown…"A Celebration of Fury must be considered one of the best local discs of the year..". UpstateLIVE Music Guide weighs in with "... the album goes through the multiple emotional levels of rebellion and protest, with powerful lyrics that make you question authority and classic punk angst that can start mosh pits in any location. The Last Conspirators have broken their silence and have encouraged a musical political revolution, reminding the listener that they have the power for change..."

When It All Comes Down

The Last Conspirators

”If you want to know where the real songwriters in punk are this day and age, look no further" - Big Takeover Magazine WHEN IT ALL COMES DOWN, the new 5-song EP from the LAST CONSPIRATORS, is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed WARPARTY album.

”If you want to know where the real songwriters in punk are this day and age, look no further" - Big Takeover Magazine WHEN IT ALL COMES DOWN, the new 5-song EP from the LAST CONSPIRATORS, is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed WARPARTY album. The new set, produced by Chris Fisher at Easter Island Studios, captures the raw energy of band's storied live performances as the LAST CONSPIRATORS serve up another batch of cutting, socially-charged blasts, combining a potent Molotov cocktail of psychedelic-punk and soulful garage rock. Nippertown says; “Tim Livingston excels at writing hook-laden, politically charged paeans to pop culture, and his commando team play it rough and crunchy on the band’s powerhouse sophomore disc... the follow-up to band’s 2007 full-length debut “War Party” – gets pretty close to capturing the energy of their live shows, and if the New York Dolls played sixties psychedelic pop, this is what it would all sound like. Potent stuff.” The Big Takeover magazine weighs in; “A five-song follow-up to Warparty, this equally potent recording hints these guys are not only are on to something good, they're just getting started. Fronted by Upstate NY punk legend, Tim Livingston (whose credits go back to Killed-By-Death style Albany punks, the Morons), the band fills the same sonic space as the Clash, Adverts, Ruts, Stiff Little Fingers and New Model Army. If you want to know where the real songwriters in punk are this day and age, look no further"

WARPARTY an album by former Morons/Ghostrunner frontman and songwriter Tim Livingston and his band THE LAST CONSPIRATORS. Ten cutting, socially-charged blasts, served up as a potent Molotov-cocktail of garagey-punk and soulful, electric-folk. ALL MUSIC GUIDE calls the Last Conspirators "a powerful rock & roll band whose sound fuses old-school punk, roots rock, and heartland rock, with fierce, often politically charged lyrics on top. The Last Conspirators are fronted by singer and songwriter Tim Livingston a pioneering figure on the punk scene in New York State's Hudson Valley." WARPARTY, a set of old-school rock & roll protest songs, was called by the TIMES UNION “ The most potent politically charged disc of the year, walking the tightrope between punk passion and polished professionalism.” THE BIG TAKEOVER MAGAZINE said: “I hear Love, ‘60s blues rock balladry, ballsy post-punk mashers like 80s Australians, and dexterous guitars that prove ballast for Livingston’s burning convictions like “American Son” and our in-foreclosure U.S. of “Innocent”. HARP MAGAZINE called it: “incisive and poetic... overall an engaging album “, while CHRONOGRAM said: “...a quartet that brings a welcome, Information Age crunch to the tough, melodic sounds of late ’70s/early ’80s Brit-punk; think The Clash, The Jam, maybe The Ruts or the UK Subs, but with slightly glossier production values and lyrics that take shots at the soul-sucking, high-tech Noughties.” GARAGE & BEAT MAGAZINE concurs, “60s psychedelia and '70s punk rage permeate this eclectic mix of angst rattled modern rock.”

A powerful rock & roll band whose sound fuses old-school punk, roots rock, and heartland rock, with fierce, often politically charged lyrics on top. The Last Conspirators are fronted by singer and songwriter Tim Livingston a pioneering figure on the punk scene in New York State’s Hudson Valley... true believers, keeping the rock & roll flame burning even if it may no longer be fashionable to do so.. coming across like an Americanized version of the Clash… the Last Conspirators.. waging war against complacency and cherishing the rebels and outsiders on the fringes of American culture. .. raging against the light, whether it's dying or burning bright.”
