THE TWILIGHT SAD
forget the night ahead

Release Date: 05/10/2009

produced and mixed by ex-delgados' man paul savage and guitarist andy macfarlane at the legendary chem19 studios in glasgow, musically, the new record is no less tumultuous, macfarelane's distinctive tremelo'd guitar creating seismic shifts between melancholy introspection and explosive release, the cacophony broadening to accommodate the band's most melodic and yet also most thrillingly discordant moments yet. here the influence of artists like early 80's cure, neu, wire or even shellac are just as prominent as longer-standing comparisons to mbv or joy division. the album also features the talents of ex-aerogramme member, dok, who also contributes guitar and keys to the live line-up, and my latest novel's laura mcfarlane who plays violin on 'the room' and 'that birthday present'.
