The fifth album from British Sea Power is to be called 'Machineries Of Joy' and is scheduled for release on Rough Trade Records on Monday 1st April. Today the band have announced a new UK tour to coincide with the release of the new record.
‘Machineries Of Joy’ was written in the Berwyn mountains in North Wales and recorded in Brighton with Dan Smith and mixer Ken Thomas (David Bowie, Sigur Ros). Singer Yan comments: “We’d like to think the album is warm and restorative. Various things are touched on in the words – Franciscan monks, ketamine, French female bodybuilders turned erotic movie stars. The world often seems a mad, hysterical place at the moment. You can’t really be oblivious to that, but we’d like the record to be an antidote – a nice game of cards in pleasant company.”
You can preorder the album and buy tickets at the same time. Just head over to the band's official website for further details.
