A
U.S. tour will commence this spring (see below).
Penned
by multi-talented frontman Jack Steadman - who wrote the songs while travelling through India, Turkey, Europe and Tokyo,
leaving it audibly awash with references from each of these cultures -
he intended it from the outset to tell a story from the first track
through to its finale.
He explains, "I think there is a romantic side
to it, although I always try to leave the meaning side of a song and
theme wide open."
The
new album looks to break exciting new ground yet again for the band,
effortlessly diversifying and innovating at an astonishing rate with ethereal loops, offbeat rhythms, shimmering keys, Dutch techno
blips, soaring strings and even Bollywood movie samples - it is without
question a defining record for a band who remain in their early 20s.
Jack
also self-produced the album which was recorded over 18 months in the
band's own studio. There are familiar backing vocals by long-time
collaborator Lucy Rose and newcomer Rae Morris. Jack
adds: "The last few years have been spent trying to move towards 'our
sound', the fact that we have produced the album ourselves has helped a
lot!"
