It All Comes Down To This

It All Comes Down to This is A Certain Ratio's 13th studio album and the first to be recorded with the core trio of Jez Kerr, Martin Moscrop and Donald Johnson, produced by Dan Carey. The release sharpens the band’s punk-funk DNA into a lean, groove-forward statement that spans ten tracks with a mix of introspection and euphoria. From the title track’s urgent drive to the buoyant qualities of Out from Under and Estate Kings, it captures a freshly focused Manchester sound while staying true to their adventurous spirit. The US edition arrived in 2024 on Mute, continuing ACR’s practice of reinvention while honoring their roots.
