2011, Fat Cat

VINYL FORMAT. The Twilight Sad follow the free download of "Kill It In The Morning" with the release of a new proper single, "Sick." Both songs are taken from the forthcoming album, No One Can Ever Know (due February 2012) marking a sonic shift for The Twilight Sad. Freshly inspired by the likes of Magazine, Caberet Voltaire, Fad Gadget, PiL and Can, a sound has developed that is reminiscent of Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails or The Cure in their imperial phases.

Over a splashing, rolling electronic drum pattern bright icy synths cut in to create a disconcertingly affecting backdrop to James Graham's desolate lyric and broad brogue. Overseen by Andy Weatherall in the loose role of advisor cum 'anti-producer', the melodic tone of the new album is largely dominated by a new keyboard/ programming-driven approach.
