Written by Jon Stickler
Skinny Lister have announced details of their fifth album.
Written over the past 18 months, 'A Matter Of Life & Love' will arrive on October 22 through Xtra Mile Recordings and include the newly shared lead single, Damn The Amsterdam.
The stomping sea shanty was written about the famous shipwreck in the bay of Bulverhythe, near Hastings, and features The Longest Johns, who will be joining the band on their previously announced tour in November and December. The song's accompanying video will premiere on YouTube today at 7.30pm BST.
Commenting on the record and what to expect, singer-songwriter Dan Heptinstall said: "It's great to have made it to album number five, and we can't wait to see what further adventures lay in store for us as we get it out there on the road and into the world! This has been a very liberating experience, not only allowing us to employ all that we've learnt from the top producers of our previous four albums, but also truly realise our own vision of the tracks. We're very proud of the results."
Skinny Lister will support Frank Turner at London's Roundhouse on September 19, prior to a run of headline shows this autumn. They'll also join Less Than Jake as special guests on their UK trek in spring 2022.
