The Singing Loins - Unravelling EnglandThe Singing Loins are back with their tenth album, ‘UNRAVELLING ENGLAND’ proving that genius is nothing more than gritted teeth and enduring patience. It features 12 brand new songs recorded as demos over a period of 18 months on a mate’s cheap digital machine. It was soon apparent that the energy and imperfection they’d captured should be released as it stood.
We think it’s their best yet and we’re also taking a (ahem…digital) single from the album which will be a 4 track affair with ‘Please Take My Scissors Away’ and ‘Everywhere’ from the new album plus a couple of older tracks.
Release date is 20th July. You can pre-order your copy by clicking on the artwork below.
[image 2 300x300]There's also a download only 4 track EP entitled "Please Take My Scissors Away" featuring 2 tracks from the album, plus one each from their last two albums.
