Marmozets have returned with details of their first new album in eight years.
The Yorkshire four-piece's third album and the follow-up to 2018's 'Knowing What You Know Now' is titled 'CO.WAR.DICE.' and will arrive on May 22. Introducing it, vocalist Becca Bottomley said:
"'CO.WAR.DICE.' is an album reflecting on the state of our world and a vow to ourselves to leave this world in a better place. We may never make a huge impact, but we can only try. Like any story there’s a beginning middle and end and we’ve chosen for a happy ending."
Produced by Johnathan Gilmore, known for his work with Biffy Clyro and Nothing But Thieves, the album began during a new chapter for Becca and her husband, guitarist Jack Bottomley, after becoming parents. A spontaneous Friday night jam at home led to New York, a high-energy punk-inspired track, which is released today.
"New York is an eccentric city, full of eccentric people and that inspires us," she explained. "We reminisced of our first trip over a bottle of red as we recorded ideas. We met a police officer smoking a cigar outside JFK airport, got in a cab while 'Africa' by Toto blasted out of the radio as we approached Manhattan. We wanted to write something that kind of encapsulated that 70's punk energy while painting a picture of this wild experience we had of playing a show downtown to secure our first record deal."
The album will also include the band's December single You Want The Truth and their earlier track, A Kiss From A Mother, which dropped in November, marking their first new single in seven years.
Marmozets are currently amid a run of sold-out intimate shows which continue at Southampton's Papillon tonight (January 30) before culminating at London's Dingwalls tomorrow. They'll also support Biffy Clyro at the Scottish trio's huge show at North London's Finsbury Park on July 3. Tickets are on sale now.
