Lanterns On The Lake new album Spook The Herd is out this Friday.
They are doing three in store dates next week: https://www.lanternsonthelake.com/live
These New Puritans “sister” album The Cut came out Friday and is limited to 500 on CD and are hand numbered. There are some incredible tracks. My favorite band currently going for fans of Talk Talk, Radiohead, Depeche Mode…..their album was my album of the year last year.
TNP are indeed amazing. They’re playing a one-off show with an extended line-up at The Barbican this Sunday. They’re always great live but this should be extra special.
Re “The Cut” cd – it has already sold out on their online shop so If anyone is searching for it you’ll either need to seek out 1 of the 200 that were sold to indie stores or seek it out on Discogs if any turn up there.
Also out this week is the Mick Ronson compilation Only After Dark which includes most of his solo output over 4 cds. I always thought Play Don’t Worry was an excellent album
