The Twilight Sad will release the album ‘Nobody Wants To Be Here and Nobody Wants To Leave‘ on October 27th.
“I love being in this band, it’s everything to me,” singer James Graham says. “I want to play big gigs, small gigs. I just want to write and play music for as long as I can. We don’t write pop songs (p.s. I love pop songs) so I don’t think we’ll ever really break into the mainstream but if we can keep progressing musically and people are still coming to our gigs then I’ll be happy.”
“I think it’s a testament to the music we’ve written and the people who support our band that we’ve got this far. Everyone always says their new album is their best, I’m not going to say that. I love all of our albums as they document that time in our lives be it good or bad. All I’ll say is that I am extremely proud of the record and I hope everyone loves it as much as I do.”
Recorded in Glasgow, the album was produced at Mogwai’s Castle Of Doom studio and has been mixed by Peter Katis – the man behind the band’s superb 2007 debut album ‘Fourteen Autumns & Fifteen Winters‘.
