A New Devotion

The new album A New Devotion is a brilliant recording of jangle, psychedelia, and colorful melodies: reminiscent of a psychedelicized Squeeze backed by The Clash. Their fantastic song structure would surely make the guys in Teardrop Explodes and Echo and The Bunnymen gush with pride. The album is about as ambitious as a pop album can get. The 18 songs tell the story of a mysterious character known only as 'Silas' and his attempt to escape unseen powers in a nightmarish city of the future. Anticipation for the new record has been building for two years, and the band is psyched to get back to the live music scene.
